019:018 "The second came, and said, "`Your pound, Sir, has produced
five pounds.'
019:019 "So he said to this one also, "`And you, be the governor
of five towns.'
019:020 "The next came. "`Sir,' he said, `here is your pound,
which I have kept wrapt up in a cloth.
019:021 For I was afraid of you, because you are a severe man:
you take up what you did not lay down, and you reap what you
did not sow.'
019:022 "`By your own words,' he replied, `I will judge you, you bad servant.
You knew me to be a severe man, taking up what I did not lay down,
and reaping what I did not sow:
019:023 why then did you not put my money into a bank, that when I
came I might have received it back with interest?
019:024 "And he said to those who stood by, "`Take the pound from him
and give it to him who has the ten pounds.'
019:025 ("They said to him, "`Sir, he already has ten pounds.')
019:026 "`I tell you that to every one who has anything, more shall
be given; and from him who has not anything, even what he has
shall be taken away.
019:027 But as for those enemies of mine who were unwilling that I
should become their king, bring them here, and cut them
to pieces in my presence.'"
