Matthew 25:24-36
24“And the one alsoG2532 who had receivedG2983 the oneG1520 1talentG5007 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 2in 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“3For 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 4the outerG1857 darknessG4655; in that placeG1563 thereG1563 will be weepingG2805 and gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.
31“But whenG3752 5the SonG5207 of ManG444 comesG2064 in His gloryG1391, and allG3956 the angelsG32 with Him, thenG5119 6He will sitG2523 on His gloriousG1391 throneG2362. 32AllG3956 the nationsG1484 will be 7gatheredG4863 beforeG1715 Him; and He will separateG873 them from oneG240 anotherG240, 8as the shepherdG4166 separatesG873 the sheepG4263 from the goatsG2056; 33and He will putG2476 the sheepG4263 9on His rightG1188, and the goatsG2055 10on the leftG2176.
34“ThenG5119 the KingG935 will sayG3004 to thoseG3588 on His rightG1188, ‘ComeG1205, you who are blessedG2127 of My FatherG3962, 11inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 preparedG2090 for you 12from the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889. 35For 13I was hungryG3983, and you gaveG1325 Me something to eatG2068; I was thirstyG1372, and you gaveG4222 Me something to drinkG4222; 14I was a strangerG3581, and you invitedG4863 Me in; 3615nakedG1131, and you clothedG4016 Me; I was sickG770, and you 16visitedG1980 Me; 17I was in prisonG5438, and you cameG2064 to Me.’
