   [continued from previous message]   
      
   14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country,   
   who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.   
      
   15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another   
   one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took   
   his journey.   
      
   16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the   
   same, and made them other five talents.   
      
   17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.   
      
   18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid   
   his lord's money.   
      
   19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth   
   with them.   
      
   20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five   
   talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I   
   have gained beside them five talents more.   
      
   21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant:   
   thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over   
   many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.   
      
   22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou   
   deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents   
   beside them.   
      
   23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou   
   hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many   
   things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.   
      
   24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew   
   thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and   
   gathering where thou hast not strawed:   
      
   25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there   
   thou hast that is thine.   
      
   26 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   
   have not strawed:   
      
   27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and   
   then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.   
      
   28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath   
   ten talents.   
      
   29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have   
   abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that   
   which he hath.   
      
   30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall   
   be weeping and gnashing of teeth.   
      
   31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels   
   with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:   
      
   32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate   
   them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:   
      
   33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.   
      
   34 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:   
      
   35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave   
   me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:   
      
   36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in   
   prison, and ye came unto me.   
      
   37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee   
   an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?   
      
   38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed   
   thee?   
      
   39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?   
      
   40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,   
   Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,   
   ye have done it unto me.   
      
   41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye   
   cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:   
      
   42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye   
   gave me no drink:   
      
   43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me   
   not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.   
      
   44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an   
   hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and   
   did not minister unto thee?   
      
   45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as   
   ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.   
      
   46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the   
   righteous into life eternal.
