40:025:017 And likewise he that had received two,
he also gained other
two.
40:025:018 But he that had received one went and digged
in the earth, and
hid
his lord’s money.
40:025:019 After a long time the lord of those servants
cometh, and
reckoneth
with them.
40:025:020 And so he that had received five talents
came and brought
other
five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me
five
talents: behold, I have gained beside them five
talents
more.
40:025:021 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou
good and faithful
servant:
thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will
make
thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the
joy of
thy
lord.
40:025:022 He also that had received two talents came
and said, Lord,
thou
deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have
gained
two
other talents beside them.
40:025:023 His lord said unto him, Well done, good
and faithful servant;
thou
hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee
ruler
over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy
lord.
40:025:024 Then he which had received the one talent
came and said, Lord,
I
knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where
thou hast
not
sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
40:025:025 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy
talent in the earth:
lo,
there thou hast that is thine.
40:025:026 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou
wicked and slothful
servant,
thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and
gather
where I have not strawed:
40:025:027 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my
money to the
exchangers,
and then at my coming I should have received mine
own
with usury.
40:025:028 Take therefore the talent from him, and
give it unto him which
hath
ten talents.
40:025:029 For unto every one that hath shall be given,
and he shall have
abundance:
but from him that hath not shall be taken away even
that
which he hath.
40:025:030 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into
outer darkness:
there
shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
40:025:031 When the Son of man shall come in his glory,
and all the holy
angels
with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his
glory:
40:025:032 And before him shall be gathered all nations:
and he shall
separate
them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his
sheep
from the goats:
40:025:033 And he shall set the sheep on his right
hand, but the goats on
the
left.
40:025:034 Then shall the King say unto them on his
right hand, Come, ye
blessed
of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you
from
the foundation of the world:
