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?
24 And he said unto those that stood by, Take from him the mina and give it to him that has the ten minas.
25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he has ten minas.)
26 For I say unto you, That unto every one who has shall be given; and from him that has not, even that which he has shall be taken away from him.
27 Moreover, those enemies of mine, who were unwilling that I should reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.
