Matthew - ch 25 v 21 - 40
- His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
- And he also that `received' the two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: lo, I have gained other two talents.
- His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
- And he also that had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow, and gathering where thou didst not scatter;
- and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, thou hast thine own.
- But his lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I did not scatter;
- thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest.
- Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.
- For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away.
- And cast ye out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
- But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory:
- and before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats;
- and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
- Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
- for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in;
- naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
- Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink?
- And when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
- And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
- And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, `even' these least, ye did it unto me.
