mnt@Luke:19:11 @ As they were listening to his words he added this parable, because he was near Jerusalem and they thought that the kingdom of God was immediately to appear.

mnt@Luke:19:12 @ So he said. "A certain nobleman went abroad to receive for himself royal power and to return.

mnt@Luke:19:13 @ "And he summoned ten slaves of his, and gave them ten pounds, and said to them, "Trade with these until I come.

mnt@Luke:19:14 @ "But this fellow citizens hated him, and sent a deputation after him to say, We do not wish this man to become our king.

mnt@Luke:19:15 @ "And upon his return after he had secured the royal power, he ordered the slaves to whom he had given the money to be called in, so that he might know what they had gained by trading.

mnt@Luke:19:16 @ "And the first came before him, saying, Master, your pound has made ten pounds.

mnt@Luke:19:17 @ "And he said to him, Well done, good slave! Because you have been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.

mnt@Luke:19:18 @ "And the second came and said, Master, your pound has made five pounds.

mnt@Luke:19:19 @ "Then he said to him also, You shall be over five cities.

mnt@Luke:19:20 @ "And the next came to him and said, Here master is your pound which I was keeping safe in a napkin.

mnt@Luke:19:21 @ "For I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take what you did not sow.

mnt@Luke:19:22 @ "He said to him, "By your own words I will Judge you, you wicked slave. You knew, did you, that I was a hard man taking up what I did not lay down, reaping what I did not sow.

mnt@Luke:19:23 @ "Then why did you not put my money into the bank, so that at my coming I might I might have gotten it back with interest?

mnt@Luke:19:24 @ "Then to those who stood by, he said, Take the pounds from him and give it to him who has ten pounds.

mnt@Luke:19:25 @ "Master, they said to him, he already has ten pounds.

mnt@Luke:19:26 @ "I tell you that to every one who has it shall be given; and from him who has not shall be taken away even what he has.

mnt@Luke:19:27 @ "Howbeit these enemies of mine who were not willing for me to become their King, bring them here, and slay them in my presence."
