Matthew 25 : 14 - 23
Chapter 25
| 14 | "For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them.
|
| 15 | And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey.
|
| 16 | Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
|
| 17 | And likewise he who had received two gained two more also.
|
| 18 | But he who had received one went and dug in the ground, and hid his lord's money.
|
| 19 | After a long time the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them.
|
| 20 | "So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, "Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.'
|
| 21 | His lord said to him, "Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
|
| 22 | He also who had received two talents came and said, "Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.'
|
| 23 | His lord said to him, "Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
|
And Glory be to God forever.
