Matthew 25:25-28 English Revised Version (ERV)

25. and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, thou hast thine own.

26. But 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 did not scatter;

27. thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest.

28. Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.
