Luke 19:20-26

20“And another came and said, ‘Master, here is your mina. I have kept it safe in a cloth

21because I was afraid of you since you’re a harsh man: you collect what you didn’t deposit and reap what you didn’t sow.’

22“He told him, ‘I will condemn you by what you have said, you evil servant! If you knew I was a harsh man, collecting what I didn’t deposit and reaping what I didn’t sow,

23why, then, didn’t you put my money in the bank? And when I returned, I would have collected it with interest.’

24So he said to those standing there, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’

25“But they said to him, ‘Master, he has ten minas.’

26“‘I tell you, that to everyone who has, more will be given; and from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.
