Matthew 25:26-28

American Standard Version

²⁶ But his lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful ^[a]servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I did not scatter; ²⁷ thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest. ²⁸ Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.
