Matthew 25:25-27

21st Century King James Version

²⁵ And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth. Lo, there thou hast what is thine.’

²⁶ His lord answered and said unto him, ‘Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strewed.

²⁷ Thou ought therefore to have placed my money with the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with interest.
