"'Well done, good and faithful slave,' replied his master; 'You have been faithful over many things. Enter into your master's joy.'

"'Well done, good and faithful slave,' his master replied, 'You have been faithful over many things; enter into your master's joy.'

"And since he was unable to pay, his master ordered him to be sold, and his wife and children and all that he had, toward the payment of the debt.

"So then the master pitied his slave, and let him go, and forgave him his debt.

"When therefore his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were very angry; and they went and explained to their master all that had happened.

"Immediately his master summoned him and said: "'You wicked slave! I forgave you all that debt because you implored me.

"Then in hot anger his master handed him over to the torturers, until he should pay him all his debt.

Whereupon Peter said to Jesus. "Look, Master, we have forsaken everything and followed you. Now what shall be our reward?"

"And as they took it they began to grumble against the master of the house.

And two blind men, sitting by the side of the road, heard that it was Jesus who was passing by, and cried out, "Have pity on us, Master, Son of David!"

But the crowd checked them, to make them keep still. They cried out all the louder, saying, "Master, have pity on us, Son of David!"

"Master," they answered, "let our eyes be opened."

"And if any one says anything to you, tell him, 'The Master needs them,' and he will send them without delay."

"Master," they said, "Moses taught that if a man dies without issue, his brother is to marry the widow, and raise up a family for his brother.

"Master, which is the great commandment in the law?"

Peter answered, "Master, if it is you, bid me come to you upon the water."

But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and as he began to sink, he cried out, "Master, save me!"

"True, Lord," she said, "but even the little dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table."

Then Peter took him aside and began to reprove him, saying. "God forbid, Master! That shall never befall you."

Then Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good that we are here! If you are willing I will make here three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

"Master, take pity on my son, for he is an epileptic and sore distressed. Often he falls into the fire and often into the water.

He is not here; for he is risen, even as he said. Come, see the place where the Master was lying!

Keep guard then, for you do not know the day on which your Master is coming.

But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have been on his guard, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

"Who, then, is the faithful and prudent slave, to whom his master has entrusted his household, to give them their food in due season?

"But he who had received the one talent went off, and dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master's money.

"After a long time the master of those slaves came, and demanded a reckoning with them.

"The man who had received the five talents came, bringing five more, and said: "'Master, five talents you entrusted to me; see, I have gained five more.'

"The second, who had received the two talents, came up and said: "'Master, it was two talents that you entrusted to me; see, I have gained two more.'

"Then the man who had received the one talent came up and said: "'Master, I knew you were a hard man, reaping where you had not sown, and gathering where you had not scattered;

"'You wicked and lazy slave,' said his master. 'You say you knew that I reap where I have not sowed, and gather where I have not scattered?'
