Proverbs 6:6
Luke 16:10
10 He that is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he that is unjust in what is least is also unjust in much.
Luke 19:12-27
12 Therefore He said: "A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.
13 And having called ten of his servants, he gave them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come.'
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, 'We will not have this man to reign over us.'
15 And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, that he commanded those servants to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, so that he might know who gained what by trading.
16 Then came the first, saying, 'Master, your mina has earned ten minas.'
17 And he said to him, 'Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.'
18 And the second came, saying, 'Master, your mina made five minas.'
19 Likewise he said to him, 'You also be over five cities.'
20 Then another came, saying, 'Master, behold your mina, which I had laid away in a handkerchief.
21 For I feared you, because you are a harsh man. You take up what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.'
22 And he said to him, 'Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was a harsh man, taking up what I did not deposit, and reaping what I did not sow.
23 Why then did you not give my money to a bank, and when I came, I would have collected it with interest?'
24 And he said to those standing by, 'Take the mina away from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.'
25 "But they said to him, 'Master, he has ten minas.'
26 For I say to you that to everyone who has, more shall be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.
27 Nevertheless bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.' "
Ezekiel 18:20
20 But the soul that sins shall die; and the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, nor shall the father bear the iniquity of the son; the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the iniquity of the transgressor shall be upon him.
Matthew 12:37
37 For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned."

Luke 12:47-48
47 And that servant who knew his master's will, and did not get ready or do according to his will, shall be beaten with many blows.
48 But he who did not know, yet did things worthy of blows, shall be beaten with few. For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be demanded; and to whom much has been entrusted, of him they will ask much more.

8 whether exhorting, in the exhortation; whether sharing, with simplicity; whether leading, with diligence; whether showing mercy, with cheerfulness.

8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

5 For each one shall bear his own load.
