Luke 19:11-14

11Now while they were listeningG191 to theseG3778 thingsG3778, Jesus wentG4369 onG4369 to tellG3004 a parableG3850, becauseG1223 1He was nearG1451 JerusalemG2419 and they thoughtG1380 that 2the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 wasG3195 goingG3195 toG3195 appearG398 immediatelyG3916.

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

13And he calledG2564 tenG1176 of his ownG1438 slavesG1401 and gaveG1325 them tenG1176 4minasG3414, and saidG3004 to them, ‘DoG4231 businessG4231 with this money 5untilG1722G3739 I comeG2064 back.’

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