Luke 19:11-19

11While they were listeningG191 to theseG3778 thingsG3778, Jesus wentG4369 on to tellG3004 a parableG3850, becauseG1223 1He was nearG1451 JerusalemG2419, and they supposedG1380 that 2the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 was goingG3195 to appearG398 immediatelyG3916.

12SoG3767 He saidG3004, “3A noblemanG2104G444 wentG4198 to a distantG3117 countryG5561 to receiveG2983 a kingdomG932 for himselfG1438, and then returnG5290.

13And he calledG2564 tenG1176 of his slavesG1401, and gaveG1325 them tenG1176 4minasG3414 and saidG3004 to them, ‘DoG4231 businessG4231 with this 5untilG1722G3739 I comeG2064 back.’

14But his citizensG4177 hatedG3404 him and sentG649 6a delegationG4242 afterG3694 him, sayingG3004, ‘We do not wantG2309 thisG3778 manG3778 to reignG936 overG1909 us.’

15WhenG1722 he returnedG1880, after receivingG2983 the kingdomG932, he orderedG3004 that theseG3778 slavesG1401, to whomG3739 he had givenG1325 the moneyG694, be calledG5455 to him soG2443 that he might knowG1097 whatG5101 businessG1281 they had doneG1281.

16The firstG4413 appearedG3854, sayingG3004, ‘7MasterG2962, your 8minaG3414 has madeG4333 tenG1176 minasG3414 moreG4333.’

17And he saidG3004 to him, ‘WellG1065 doneG2095, goodG18 slaveG1401, becauseG3754 you have beenG1096 9faithfulG4103 in a veryG1646 littleG1646 thingG1646, you are to be in authorityG1849 overG1883 tenG1176 citiesG4172.’

18The secondG1208 cameG2064, sayingG3004, ‘Your 10minaG3414, 11masterG2962, has madeG4160 fiveG4002 minasG3414.’

19And he saidG3004 to him alsoG2532, ‘And you are to be overG1883 fiveG4002 citiesG4172.’
