Matthew 25:23-25

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²³ His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, ^[a]admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the ^[b]blessedness) which your master enjoys.

²⁴ He who had received one talent also came forward, saying, Master, I knew you to be a harsh and hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you had not winnowed [the grain].

²⁵ So I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is your own.
