Luke:19:12-27
updv@Luke:19:12 @ He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
updv@Luke:19:13 @ And he called ten slaves of his, and gave them $10,000, and said to them, Trade(note:){+}(:note) until I come.
updv@Luke:19:14 @ But his citizens hated him, and sent an ambassador after him, saying, We will not have this man reign over us.
updv@Luke:19:15 @ And it came to pass, when he came back again, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these slaves, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by trading.
updv@Luke:19:16 @ And the first came before him, saying, Lord, your $1,000 has made $10,000 more.
updv@Luke:19:17 @ And he said to him, Well done, you good slave: because you were found faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.
updv@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, Your $1,000, Lord, has made $5,000.
updv@Luke:19:19 @ And he said to him also, You also be over five cities.
updv@Luke:19:20 @ And another came, saying, Lord, look, [here is] your $1,000, which I kept laid up in a napkin:
updv@Luke:19:21 @ for I feared you, because you are an austere man: you take up that which you did not lay down, and reap that which you did not sow.
updv@Luke:19:22 @ He says to him, Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked slave. You knew that I am an austere man, taking up that which I did not lay down, and reaping that which I did not sow;
updv@Luke:19:23 @ then why didn't you give my money into the bank, and I at my coming should have collected it with interest?
updv@Luke:19:24 @ And he said to those who stood by, Take away from him the $1,000, and give it to him who has the $10,000.
updv@Luke:19:25 @ And they said to him, Lord, he has $10,000.
updv@Luke:19:26 @ I say to you(note:){+}(:note), that to everyone who has will be given; but from him who has not, even that which he has will be taken away.
updv@Luke:19:27 @ But these enemies of mine, that did not want that I should reign over them, bring here, and slay them before me.
