Matthew 25:19-30

JuliaSmith(i) 19 And after much time the lord of these servants comes, and lifts up the word with them. 20 And he having received the five talents, having come near, brought the other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst me five talents: and I have gained other five talents. 21 And his lord said to him, Well, good and faithful servant: thou west faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many; enter into the joy of thy lord. 22 And he also having received the two talents, having come near said, Lord, thou deliveredst me two talents; see, I gained two other talents to them. 23 His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful servant; thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many; enter into the joy of thy lord. 24 And he also having received one talent, having come near, said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou sowedst not, and gathering where thou scatteredst not: 25 And having been afraid, having gone away, I concealed thy talent in the earth; see, thou hast thine own. 26 And his lord having answered, said to him, O evil and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I scattered not: 27 Thou therefore oughtest to have cast my silver to the money changers, and I having come, had received mine own, with interest 28 Therefore take the talent away from him, and give him having ten talents. 29 For to every one having shall be given, and he shall be in abundance: and from him not having, also what he has shall be taken away from him. 30 And cast ye the useless servant into darkness without; weeping shall be there, and gnashing of teeth.
