Matthew 25:25-27

Contemporary English Version

²⁵ I was frightened and went out and hid your money in the ground. Here is every single coin!”

²⁶ The master of the servant told him, “You are lazy and good-for-nothing! You know I harvest what I don't plant and gather crops where I haven't scattered seed. ²⁷ You could have at least put my money in the bank, so I could have earned interest on it.”
