So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, so that when I came back I could have collected my principal with interest.

So why did you not put my money into the bank? In that case, when I came back I could have gotten interest on my principal.'

Now I will give you my opinion on this matter. For this is for your interest, because you were not only the first to do anything about it, but the first to want to do so; you started it a year ago.

For I have no one else with a heart like his who would take such genuine interest in you,

I was made very happy as a Christian to have your interest in my welfare revived again after so long; because you have always had the interest but not the opportunity to show it.
