MAT 25:14–30, engwebp
¹⁴“For it is like a man going into another country, who called his own servants and entrusted his goods to them.
¹⁵To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.
¹⁶Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
¹⁷In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two.
¹⁸But he who received the one talent went away and dug in the earth and hid his lord’s money.
¹⁹“Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and settled accounts with them.
²⁰He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents in addition to them.’
²¹“His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
²²“He also who got the two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents in addition to them.’
²³“His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
²⁴“He also who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you didn’t sow, and gathering where you didn’t scatter.
²⁵I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’
²⁶“But his lord answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn’t sow, and gather where I didn’t scatter.
²⁷You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.
²⁸Take away therefore the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.
²⁹For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away.
³⁰Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
