Matthew 25:14-29

14For [it is] as [if] a manG444 going away out of a country calledG2564 his ownG2398 bondmen and deliveredG3860 to them his substance.

15And to oneG1520 he gaveG1325 fiveG4002 talentsG5007, to another twoG1417, and to another oneG1520; to each accordingG2596 to his particular abilityG1411, and immediatelyG2112 went away out of the country.

16And he that had receivedG2983 the fiveG4002 talentsG5007 wentG4198 and trafficked with them, and madeG4160 fiveG4002 otherG243 talentsG5007.

17In like manner also he that [had received] the twoG1417, [he also] gainedG2770 twoG1417 othersG243.

18But he that had receivedG2983 the oneG1520 wentG565 and dugG3736 in the earthG1093, and hidG2928 the moneyG694 of his lordG2962.

19And after a long timeG5550 the lordG2962 of those bondmen comesG2064 and reckons with them.

20And he that had receivedG2983 the fiveG4002 talentsG5007 cameG4334 to [him] and broughtG4374 fiveG4002 otherG243 talentsG5007, sayingG3004, [My] lordG2962, thou deliveredst me fiveG4002 talentsG5007; beholdG2396, I have gainedG2770 fiveG4002 otherG243 talentsG5007 besides them.

21His lordG2962 saidG5346 to him, Well, goodG18 and faithfulG4103 bondman, thou wast faithfulG4103 over a fewG3641 thingsG4183, I will setG2525 thee over manyG4183 thingsG4183: enterG1525 into the joyG5479 of thy lordG2962.

22And he alsoG2532 that had received the twoG1417 talentsG5007 cameG4334 to [him] and saidG3004, [My] lordG2962, thou deliveredst me twoG1417 talentsG5007; beholdG2396, I have gainedG2770 twoG1417 otherG243 talentsG5007 besides them.

23His lordG2962 saidG5346 to him, Well, goodG18 and faithfulG4103 bondman, thou wast faithfulG4103 over a fewG3641 thingsG4183, I will setG2525 thee over manyG4183 thingsG4183: enterG1525 thou into the joyG5479 of thy lordG2962.

24And he alsoG2532 that had receivedG2983 the oneG1520 talentG5007 comingG4334 to [him] saidG3004, [My] lordG2962, I knewG1097 thee that thou art a hardG4642 manG444, reapingG2325 whereG3699 thou hadst not sowedG4687, and gatheringG4863 from whereG3699 thou hadst not scatteredG1287,

25and being afraidG5399 I wentG565 awayG565 and hidG2928 thy talentG5007 in the earthG1093; beholdG2396, thou hast that which is thine.

26And his lordG2962 answeringG611 saidG3004 to him, WickedG4190 and slothful bondman, thou knewest that I reapG2325 whereG3699 I had not sowedG4687, and gatherG4863 from whereG3699 I had not scatteredG1287;

27thou oughtest then to have putG906 my moneyG694 to the money-changers, and when I cameG2064 I should have got what is mine with interestG5110.

28TakeG142 thereforeG3767 the talentG5007 from him, and giveG1325 it to him that has the tenG1176 talentsG5007:

29for to every oneG3739 that has shall be givenG1325, and he shall be in abundanceG4052; but from him that has not, that evenG2532 which he has shall be takenG142 from him.
