    15To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.

    16Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.

    26"But his lord answered him, 'You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn't sow, and gather where I didn't scatter.
