Matthew:25:12-40
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But he answered (
5679 )
and said (
5627 ),
Verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
I know (
5758 )
you not .
*
Watch (
5720 )
therefore ,
for ye know (
5758 )
neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh (
5736 ).
*
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country (
5723 ),
who called (
5656 )
his own servants ,
and delivered (
5656 )
unto them his goods (
5723 ).
*
And unto one he gave (
5656 )
five talents ,
to another two ,
and to another one ;
to every man according to his several ability ;
and straightway took his journey (
5656 ).
*
Then he that had received (
5631 )
the five talents went (
5679 )
and traded (
5662 )
with the same ,
and made (
5656 )
them other five talents .
*
And likewise he that had received two ,
he also gained (
5656 )
other two .
*
But he that had received (
5631 )
one went (
5631 )
and digged (
5656 )
in the earth ,
and hid (
5656 )
his lords money .
*
After a long time the lord of those servants cometh (
5736 ),
and reckoneth (
5719 )
with them .
*
And so he that had received (
5631 )
five talents came (
5631 )
and brought (
5656 )
other five talents ,
saying (
5723 ),
Lord ,
thou deliveredst (
5656 )
unto me five talents :
behold ,
I have gained (
5656 )
beside them five talents more .
*
His lord said (
5713 )
unto him ,
Well done ,
thou good and faithful servant :
thou hast been (
5713 )
faithful over a few things ,
I will make thee ruler (
5692 )
over many things :
enter thou (
5628 )
into the joy of thy lord .
*
He also that had received (
5631 )
two talents came (
5631 )
and said (
5627 ),
Lord ,
thou deliveredst (
5656 )
unto me two talents :
behold ,
I have gained (
5656 )
two other talents beside them .
*
His lord said (
5713 )
unto him ,
Well done ,
good and faithful servant ;
thou hast been (
5713 )
faithful over a few things ,
I will make thee ruler (
5692 )
over many things :
enter thou (
5628 )
into the joy of thy lord .
*
Then he which had received (
5761 )
the one talent came (
5631 )
and said (
5627 ),
Lord ,
I knew (
5627 )
thee that thou art (
5748 )
an hard man ,
reaping (
5723 )
where thou hast not sown (
5656 ),
and gathering (
5723 )
where thou hast not strawed (
5656 ):
*
And I was afraid (
5679 ),
and went (
5631 )
and hid (
5656 )
thy talent in the earth :
lo ,
there thou hast (
5719 )
that is thine .
*
His lord answered (
5679 )
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Thou wicked and slothful servant ,
thou knewest (
5715 )
that I reap (
5719 )
where I sowed (
5656 )
not ,
and gather (
5719 )
where I have not strawed (
5656 ):
*
Thou oughtest (
5713 )
therefore to have put (
5629 )
my money to the exchangers ,
and then at my coming (
5631 )
I should have received (
5668 )
mine own with usury .
*
Take (
5657 )
therefore the talent from him ,
and give (
5628 )
it unto him which hath (
5723 )
ten talents .
*
For unto every one that hath (
5723 )
shall be given (
5701 ),
and he shall have abundance (
5701 ):
but from him that hath (
5723 )
not shall be taken away (
5701 )
even that which he hath (
5719 ).
*
And cast ye (
5720 )
the unprofitable servant into outer darkness :
there shall be (
5704 )
weeping and gnashing of teeth .
*
When the Son of man shall come (
5632 )
in his glory ,
and all the holy angels with him ,
then shall he sit (
5692 )
upon the throne of his glory :
*
And before him shall be gathered (
5701 )
all nations :
and he shall separate (
5692 )
them one from another ,
as a shepherd divideth (
5719 )
his sheep from the goats :
*
And he shall set (
5692 )
the sheep on his right hand ,
but the goats on the left .
*
Then shall the King say (
5692 )
unto them on his right hand ,
Come (
5773 ),
ye blessed (
5772 )
of my Father ,
inherit (
5657 )
the kingdom prepared (
5772 )
for you from the foundation of the world :
*
For I was an hungred (
5656 ),
and ye gave (
5656 )
me meat (
5629 ):
I was thirsty (
5656 ),
and ye gave me drink (
5656 ):
I was (
5713 )
a stranger ,
and ye took me in (
5627 ):
*
Naked ,
and ye clothed (
5627 )
me :
I was sick (
5656 ),
and ye visited (
5662 )
me :
I was (
5713 )
in prison ,
and ye came (
5627 )
unto me .
*
Then shall the righteous answer (
5700 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Lord ,
when saw we (
5627 )
thee an hungred (
5723 ),
and fed (
5656 )
thee ?
or thirsty (
5723 ),
and gave thee drink (
5656 )?
*
When saw we (
5627 )
thee a stranger ,
and took thee in (
5627 )?
or naked ,
and clothed (
5627 )
thee ?
*
Or when saw we (
5627 )
thee sick ,
or in prison ,
and came (
5627 )
unto thee ?
*
And the King shall answer (
5679 )
and say (
5692 )
unto them ,
Verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Inasmuch as ye have done (
5656 )
it unto one of the least of these my brethren ,
ye have done (
5656 )
it unto me .
