Luke 19:12-15

12He said therefore, A certain high-born man went to a distant country to receive for himself a kingdom and return.

13And having called his own ten bondmen, he gave to them ten minas, and said to them, Trade while I am coming.

14But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not that this [man] should reign over us.

15And it came to pass on his arrival back again, having received the kingdom, that he desired these bondmen to whom he gave the money to be called to him, in order that he might know what every one had gained by trading.
