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! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master.’ 24 Then the servant who had received one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’ 26 His master answered, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! You knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered. 27 Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return, I would have received it back with interest. 28 So take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents. 29 For to everyone who has, more will be given, and they will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken away from them. 30 And throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Because you have been faithful in a very small matter, you will have authority over ten cities.' 18 The second came and said, 'Master, your mina has made five minas.' 19 And he said to him, 'You also will be in charge of five cities.' 20 Another came and said, 'Master, here is your mina. I kept it laid away in a cloth.' 21 'For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man. You take what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.' 22 He said to him, 'I will judge you by your own words, you wicked servant! You knew, did you, that I am a harsh man, taking what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow?' 23 'Then why didn’t you put my money in the bank, so that when I returned I could have collected it with interest?' 24 Then he said to those standing by, 'Take the mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.' 25 (They said to him, 'Master, he already has ten minas!') 26 'I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.'

If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong the glory and power forever and ever. Amen.
