Matthew 25:23-30

23His masterG2962 saidG5346 to him, ‘WellG2095 doneG2095, goodG18 and 1faithfulG4103 slaveG1401. You were faithfulG4103 with a fewG3641 thingsG3641, I will putG2525 you in chargeG2525 of manyG4183 thingsG4183; enterG1525 into the joyG5479 of your masterG2962.’

24“And the one alsoG2532 who had receivedG2983 the oneG1520 2talentG5007 cameG4334 up and saidG3004, ‘MasterG2962, I knewG1097 you to be a hardG4642 manG444, reapingG2325 whereG3699 you did not sowG4687 and gatheringG4863 whereG3606 you scatteredG1287 noG3756 seed. 25And I was afraidG5399, and wentG565 awayG565 and hidG2928 your talentG5007 in the groundG1093. SeeG2396, you haveG2192 whatG3588 is yoursG4674.’

26“But his masterG2962 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, ‘You wickedG4190, lazyG3636 slaveG1401, you knewG3609 that I reapG2325 whereG3699 I did not sowG4687 and gatherG4863 whereG3606 I scatteredG1287 noG3756 seed. 27ThenG3767 you oughtG1163 to have putG906 my moneyG694 3in the bankG5133, and on my arrivalG2064 I would have receivedG2865 my money backG2865 with interestG5110. 28ThereforeG3767 takeG142 awayG142 the talentG5007 from him, and giveG1325 it to the one who hasG2192 the tenG1176 talentsG5007.’

29“4For to everyoneG3956 who hasG2192, more shall be givenG1325, and he will haveG4052 an abundanceG4052; but from the one who does not haveG2192, evenG2532 whatG3739 he does haveG2192 shall be takenG142 awayG142. 30ThrowG1544 out the worthlessG888 slaveG1401 into 5the outerG1857 darknessG4655; in that placeG1563 thereG1563 will be weepingG2805 and gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.
