* He said therefore , A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom , and to return . * And he called his ten servants , and delivered them ten pounds , and said unto them , Occupy till I come . * But his citizens hated him , and sent a message after him , saying , We will not have this man to reign over us . * And it came to pass , that when he was returned , having received the kingdom , then he commanded these servants to be called unto him , to whom he had given the money , that he might know how much every man had gained by trading . * Then came the first , saying , Lord , thy pound hath gained ten pounds . * And he said unto him , Well , thou good servant : because thou hast been faithful in a very little , have thou authority over ten cities .
