His lord answered and said to him, You wicked and slothful servant, you knew that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strewed:
Then his lord, after that he had called him, said to him, O you wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you desired me:
And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strewed them in the way.
Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew you that you are an hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not strewed:
And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the earth: see, there you have that is yours.
You ought therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received my own with usury.
