15and to one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to each according to his several ability, went abroad immediately.
16`And he who did receive the five talents, having gone, wrought with them, and made other five talents;
17in like manner also he who [received] the two, he gained, also he, other two;
18and he who did receive the one, having gone away, digged in the earth, and hid his lord`s money.
19`And after a long time cometh the lord of those servants, and taketh reckoning with them;
20and he who did receive the five talents having come, brought other five talents, saying, `Sir, five talents thou didst deliver to me; lo, other five talents did I gain besides them.
21`And his lord said to him, Well done, servant, good and faithful, over a few things thou wast faithful, over many things I will set thee; enter into the joy of thy lord.
