21His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.
22And he who had the two talents came and said, Lord, you gave into my care two talents: see, I have got two more.
23His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.
24And he who had had the one talent came and said, Lord, I had knowledge that you are a hard man, getting in grain where you have not put seed, and making profits for which you have done no work:
25And I was in fear, and went away, and put your talent in the earth: here is what is yours.
26But his lord in answer said to him, You are a bad and unready servant; if you had knowledge that I get in grain where I did not put seed, and make profits for which I have done no work,
27Why, then, did you not put my money in the bank, and at my coming I would have got back what is mine with interest?
