Exegesis
In the second half, the imperative hypagete {Ὑπάγετε | hypágete} “go” functions as a directive from the landowner, while the coordinated phrase kai hymeis {καὶ ὑμεῖς | kaí hyméis} “you also” highlights the inclusion of these previously unemployed workers.
In context — Matthew 20:7
They say to him, “Because no one has hired us.” He says to them, “You also go into the vineyard.”
