Luke 19:12-14

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹² He said, “A prince went to a distant country to be appointed king, and then he returned. ¹³ ⌞Before he left,⌟ he called ten of his servants and gave them ten coins. He said to his servants, ‘Invest this money until I come back.’

¹⁴ “The citizens of his own country hated him. They sent representatives to follow him and say ⌞to the person who was going to appoint him⌟, ‘We don’t want this man to be our king.’
