42:019:017 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant:
because thou
hast
been faithful in a very little, have thou authority
over
ten
cities.
42:019:018 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy
pound hath gained five
pounds.
42:019:019 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
42:019:020 And another came, saying, Lord, behold,
here is thy pound,
which
I have kept laid up in a napkin:
42:019:021 For I feared thee, because thou art an
austere man: thou
takest
up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou
didst
not sow.
42:019:022 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own
mouth will I judge
thee,
thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an
austere
man,
taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I
did
not
sow:
42:019:023 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money
into the bank, that at
my
coming I might have required mine own with usury?
42:019:024 And he said unto them that stood by, Take
from him the pound,
and
give it to him that hath ten pounds.
42:019:025 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
42:019:026 For I say unto you, That unto every one
which hath shall be
given;
and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall
be
taken
away from him.
42:019:027 But those mine enemies, which would not
that I should reign
over
them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
42:019:028 And when he had thus spoken, he went before,
ascending up to
Jerusalem.
42:019:029 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh
to Bethphage and
Bethany,
at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two
of
his disciples,
42:019:030 Saying, Go ye into the village over against
you; in the which
at
your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet
never
man
sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
42:019:031 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose
him? thus shall ye say
unto
him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
42:019:032 And they that were sent went their way,
and found even as he
had
said unto them.
42:019:033 And as they were loosing the colt, the
owners thereof said
unto
them, Why loose ye the colt?
42:019:034 And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
42:019:035 And they brought him to Jesus: and
they cast their garments
upon
the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
42:019:036 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
42:019:037 And when he was come nigh, even now at
the descent of the
mount
of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began
to
rejoice
and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty
works
that they had seen;
