18The second came, saying, `Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.`
19He said to him also, `You also are to be over five cities.`
20Another came, saying, `Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,
21for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which didn`t lay down, and reap that which you didn`t sow.`
22He said to him, `Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn`t lay down, and reaping that which I didn`t sow.
23Then why didn`t you deposit my money in the bank, and I at my coming might have earned interest on it?`
24He said to those who stood by, `Take the mina away from him, and give it to him who has the ten minas.`
