New King James Version
9 And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because (A)he also is (B)a son of Abraham; 10 (C)for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”
The Parable of the Minas(D)
11 Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because (E)they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately. 12 (F)Therefore He said: “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. 13 So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten [a]minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come.’ 14 (G)But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We will not have this man to reign over us.’
