Luke 19:24

Weymouth NT

»And he said to those who stood by,« `Take the pound from him and give it to him who has the ten pounds.'

See the chapter Copy

»But God said to him,« `Foolish man, this night your life is demanded from you; and these preparations–for whom shall they be?'

He called him and said, »`What is this I hear about you? Render an account of your stewardship, for I cannot let you hold it any longer.'

And he called ten of his servants and gave each of them a pound, instructing them to trade with the money during his absence.

why then did you not put my money into a bank, that when I came I might have received it back with interest?

(They said to him, »`Sir, he already has ten pounds.')
