Matthew 25:25-27

New Catholic Bible

²⁵ Therefore, out of fear I went off and hid your talent in the ground. Behold, I give it back to you.’

²⁶ “His master replied, ‘You wicked and lazy servant. So you knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered! ²⁷ Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have gotten back my money with interest.
