Then he went on his journey immediately. 16 The servant who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17 In the same way, the servant who had two talents also gained two more. 18 But the servant who had received the one talent went away, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money. 19 After a long time, the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 The servant who had received five talents came and brought five more, saying, ‘Master, you entrusted me with five talents; see, I have gained five more.’ 21 His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master.’ 22 The servant who had received two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more.’ 23 His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant!

How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?" 10 Though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to lie with her or even be with her. 11 One day, Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the household servants was inside. 12 She caught him by his garment and said, "Sleep with me!" But Joseph left his garment in her hand, ran away, and went outside. 13 When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and fled outside, 14 she called her household servants and said to them, "Look, this Hebrew man has been brought to us to mock us! He came to me to lie with me, but I screamed loudly. 15 When he heard me raise my voice and scream, he left his garment beside me and ran outside." 16 She kept his garment beside her until his master came home. 17 Then she told him this story: "That Hebrew servant you brought to us came to mock me. 18 But when I raised my voice and screamed, he left his garment beside me and fled outside." 19 When his master heard the story that his wife told him, saying, "This is how your servant treated me," his anger burned. 20 So Joseph's master took him and put him in the prison where the king's prisoners were held, and he remained there. 21 But the LORD was with Joseph and showed him kindness, granting him favor in the eyes of the prison warden. 22 The warden put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners, and he was responsible for whatever happened there. 23 The warden paid no attention to anything under Joseph's care, because the LORD was with him and gave him success in whatever he did.
