Context Readings

The Parable Of The Ten Minas

21 For I feared thee, because thou art a harsh man; thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow. 22 He saith to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked servant! thou knewest that I was a harsh man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow; 23 why then didst thou not put my money into a bank? Then I at my coming might have received it back with interest.
