    19After a long time, the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.

    20The 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.’

    22The servant who had received two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more.’

    24Then 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.

    25So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’

    26His master answered, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! You knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered.

    27Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return, I would have received it back with interest.

    28So take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents.
