Matthew 25:23-25
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
23 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful over a few things. I will put you in charge over many things. Enter into the joy of your master’. 24 And also having come to him, the one having received[a] the one talent said, ‘Master, I knew you— that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow and gathering from where you did not scatter[b] [threshings]. 25 And having become afraid, having gone, I hid your talent in the ground. Look, you have what is yours’.
