Matthew 25:13-15
New Matthew Bible
13 Watch, therefore. For you know neither the day nor yet the hour when the Son of man will come.
14 Likewise it will be as a certain man, ready to take his journey to a strange country, called his servants and delivered his goods to them. 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one – to every man according to his ability – and straightaway departed.
