Matthew 25:25-27

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

²⁵ And having become afraid, having gone, I hid your talent in the ground. Look, you have what is yours’. ²⁶ But having responded, his master said to him, ‘Evil and lazy slave! You knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather from where I did not scatter^[a]! ²⁷ Therefore you should-have put my money with the bankers. And having come, I would have received-back what was mine with interest.
