gltv - Luke:19:11-27

gltv@Luke:19:11 @ But as they were hearing these things, He spoke, adding a parable, because He was near to Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God was immediately to be revealed.

gltv@Luke:19:12 @ Then He said: A certain wellborn man went to a distant country to receive a kingdom for himself, and to return.

gltv@Luke:19:13 @ And calling ten of his slaves, He gave to them ten minas and said to them, Trade until I come.

gltv@Luke:19:14 @ But his citizens hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, We do not desire this one to reign over us.

gltv@Luke:19:15 @ And it happened as he returned, having received the kingdom, he even said for those slaves to be called to him, those to whom he gave the silver, that he might know what each had gained by trading.

gltv@Luke:19:16 @ And the first came, saying, Lord, your mina has gained ten minas.

gltv@Luke:19:17 @ And he said to him, Well done, good slave! Because you were faithful in a least thing, have authority over ten cities.

gltv@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, Lord, your mina has made five minas.

gltv@Luke:19:19 @ And he said to this one also, And you be over five cities.

gltv@Luke:19:20 @ And another came, saying, Lord, behold your mina which I had kept in a handkerchief.

gltv@Luke:19:21 @ For I feared you, because you are an exacting man, taking what you did not lay down, and reaping what you did not sow.

gltv@Luke:19:22 @ But he said to him, I will judge you out of your own mouth, wicked slave. You knew that I am an exacting man, taking what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow.

gltv@Luke:19:23 @ And why did you not give my silver on the bank table? And coming, I might have exacted it with interest.

gltv@Luke:19:24 @ And to those standing by, he said, Take the mina from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.

gltv@Luke:19:25 @ And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.

gltv@Luke:19:26 @ For I say to you, To everyone who has, it will be given. And from the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.

gltv@Luke:19:27 @ But these enemies of mine, those not desiring me to reign over them, bring them here and execute them before me.
