(Matthew 25:14-30
The Parable of the Talents
14 It is like this: a certain man going on a journey called his servants and entrusted his possessions to them. 15 To one he gave five talents, to another two, and to a third one, to each according to his ability, and he departed. Immediately 16 He who had received the five talents went and traded with them and made five more. 17 He who had received the two talents also made two more. 18 He who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master's money. 19 After a long time, the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 Then he who had received the five talents came and brought the other five talents and said, "Sir, you delivered me five talents; look, I have made five more." 21 His master said to him, "Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master." 22 Then he who had received the two talents also came and said, "Master, you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more." 23 His master said to him, "Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master." 24 Then he who had received the one talent also came and said, "Master, I knew that you are a hard man; you reap where you did not sow, and gather where you did not strew. 25 So I was afraid, so I went and hid your talent in the ground. See, this is what is yours." 26 His lord answered him, "You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I did not scatter. 27 You should have given my money to the bankers, and when I returned, I would have received what was mine with interest. 28 Therefore take away the talent from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. 29 For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance. But from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And throw the worthless servant outside into the darkness. There there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
