And he said to the bystanders, 'Take the pound away from him, and give it to him who has ten pounds.'
But God said to him: 'Foolish one, this very night they require your soul of you. To whom, then, will those things belong, which you have prepared?'
And he called him and said to him: 'What is this that I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship. For you can no longer be my steward.'
And calling his ten servants, he gave them ten pounds, and he said to them: 'Do business until I return.'
And so, why did you not give my money to the bank, so that, upon my return, I might have withdrawn it with interest?'
And they said to him, 'Lord, he has ten pounds.'
