Matthew 25:16-27

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.
