19 After [1161] [3326] a long [4183] time [5550] the lord [2962] of those [1565] servants [1401] cometh [2064], and [2532] reckoneth [4868] [3056] with [3326] them [846].
20 And so [2532] he that had received [2983] five [4002] talents [5007] came [4334] and brought [4374] other [243] five [4002] talents [5007], saying [3004], Lord [2962], thou deliveredst [3860] unto me [3427] five [4002] talents [5007]: behold [2396], I have gained [2770] beside [1909] them [846] five [4002] talents [5007] more [243].
21 [1161] His [846] lord [2962] said [5346] unto him [846], Well done [2095], thou good [18] and [2532] faithful [4103] servant [1401]: thou hast been [2258] faithful [4103] over [1909] a few things [3641], I will make [2525] thee [4571] ruler [2525] over [1909] many things [4183]: enter thou [1525] into [1519] the joy [5479] of thy [4675] lord [2962].
22 [1161] He also [2532] that had received [2983] two [1417] talents [5007] came [4334] and said [2036], Lord [2962], thou deliveredst [3860] unto me [3427] two [1417] talents [5007]: behold [2396], I have gained [2770] two [1417] other [243] talents [5007] beside [1909] them [846].
23 His [846] lord [2962] said [5346] unto him [846], Well done [2095], good [18] and [2532] faithful [4103] servant [1401]; thou hast been [2258] faithful [4103] over [1909] a few things [3641], I will make [2525] thee [4571] ruler [2525] over [1909] many things [4183]: enter thou [1525] into [1519] the joy [5479] of thy [4675] lord [2962].
24 Then [1161] [2532] he which had received [2983] the one [1520] talent [5007] came [4334] and said [2036], Lord [2962], I knew [1097] thee [4571] that [3754] thou art [1488] an hard [4642] man [444], reaping [2325] where [3699] thou hast [4687] not [3756] sown [4687], and [2532] gathering [4863] where [3606] thou hast [1287] not [3756] strawed [1287]:
25 And [2532] I was afraid [5399], and went [565] and hid [2928] thy [4675] talent [5007] in [1722] the earth [1093]: lo [2396], there thou hast [2192] that is thine [4674].
26 [1161] His [846] lord [2962] answered [611] and said [2036] unto him [846], Thou wicked [4190] and [2532] slothful [3636] servant [1401], thou knewest [1492] that [3754] I reap [2325] where [3699] I sowed [4687] not [3756], and [2532] gather [4863] where [3606] I have [1287] not [3756] strawed [1287]:
27 Thou [4571] oughtest [1163] therefore [3767] to have put [906] my [3450] money [694] to the exchangers [5133], and [2532] then at my coming [2064] I [1473] should [302] have received [2865] mine own [1699] with [4862] usury [5110].
28 Take [142] therefore [3767] the talent [5007] from [575] him [846], and [2532] give [1325] it unto him which hath [2192] ten [1176] talents [5007].
29 For [1063] unto every one [3956] that hath [2192] shall be given [1325], and [2532] he shall have abundance [4052]: but [1161] from [575] him [846] that hath [2192] not [3361] shall be taken away [142] [575] even [2532] that which [3739] he hath [2192].
19 After [1161] [3326] a long [4183] time [5550] the lord [2962] of those [1565] servants [1401] cometh [2064], and [2532] reckoneth [4868] [3056] with [3326] them [846].
23 Wherefore [1302] then [2532] gavest [1325] not [3756] thou [1325] my [3450] money [694] into [1909] the bank [5132], that [2532] at my coming [2064] I [1473] might [302] have required [4238] mine own [846] with [4862] usury [5110]?
13 And [1161] he called [2564] his [1438] ten [1176] servants [1401], and delivered [1325] them [846] ten [1176] pounds [3414], and [2532] said [2036] unto [4314] them [846], Occupy [4231] till [2193] I come [2064].
14 For [1063] the kingdom of heaven is as [5618] a man [444] travelling into a far country [589], who called [2564] his own [2398] servants [1401], and [2532] delivered [3860] unto them [846] his [846] goods [5224].
