Luke 19:21-26 Because I was in fear of you, for you are a hard man: you take up what you have not put down, and get in grain where you have not put seed.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ Because I was in fear of you, for you are a hard man: you take up what you have not put down, and get in grain where you have not put seed. ²² He said to him, By the words of your mouth you will be judged, you bad servant. You had knowledge that I am a hard man, taking up what I have not put down and getting in grain where I have not put seed; ²³ Why then did you not put my money in a bank, so that when I came I would get it back with interest? ²⁴ And he said to the others who were near, Take the pound away from him, and give it to the man who has ten. ²⁵ And they say to him, Lord, he has ten pounds. ²⁶ And I say to you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
