19 And after much time, the master of those servants comes and takes account with them.
20 And the one having received the five talents, having come, brought to him five other talents, saying, ‘Master, you did deliver to me five talents. Behold, I have gained five talents more.’
21 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
22 And the one with the two talents, also having come said, ‘Master, you did deliver to me two talents. Behold, I have gained two talents more.’
23 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
24 And the one having received the one talent, having come, also said, ‘Master, I knew you, that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering from where you did not scatter.
25 And having been afraid, having gone away, I hid your talent in the ground. Behold, you have what is yours.’
26 And his master answering, said to him, ‘Wicked and lazy servant! You knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather from where I did not scatter.
27 Therefore it behooved you to put my money to the bankers, and having come, I would have received my own with interest.
28 Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to the one having the ten talents.
29 For to everyone having will be given, and he will have in abundance. But the one not having, even that which he has will be taken away from him.
30 And cast out the worthless servant, into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
