Luke:19:20-26

*
And another came ,
saying ,
Lord ,
behold ,
here is thy pound ,
which I have kept laid up in a napkin :
*
For I feared thee ,
because thou art an austere man :
thou takest up that thou layedst not down ,
and reapest that thou didst not sow .
*
And he saith unto him ,
Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee ,
thou wicked servant .
Thou knewest that I was an austere man ,
taking up that I laid not down ,
and reaping that I did not sow :
*
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank ,
that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury ?
*
And he said unto them that stood by ,
Take from him the pound ,
and give it to him that hath ten pounds .
* (
And they said unto him ,
Lord ,
he hath ten pounds .)
*
For I say unto you ,
That unto every one which hath shall be given ;
and from him that hath not ,
even that he hath shall be taken away from him .
