17 And he said unto him, Well done, thou good slave; because thou hast been faithful in a very little, thou shalt have authority over ten cities.
18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy mina has made five minas.
19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy mina, which I have kept laid up in a napkin,
21 for I feared thee because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that which thou didst not lay down and dost reap that which thou didst not sow.
22 Then he said unto him, Out of thine own mouth I will judge thee, thou wicked slave. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that which I did not lay down, and reaping that which I did not sow;
23 why then didst thou not give my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required my own with interest?
