Luke 19:15 "When he returned, after receiving the kingdom, he ordered that these slaves, to whom he had given the money, be called to him so that he might know what business they had done.
Luke 19:16 "The first appeared, saying, 'Master, your mina has made ten minas more.'
Luke 19:17 "And he said to him, 'Well done, good slave, because you have been faithful in a very little thing, you are to be in authority over ten cities.'
Luke 19:18 "The second came, saying, 'Your mina, master, has made five minas.'
Luke 19:19 "And he said to him also, 'And you are to be over five cities.'
Luke 19:20 "Another came, saying, 'Master, here is your mina, which I kept put away in a handkerchief;
Luke 19:21 for I was afraid of you, because you are an exacting man; you take up what you did not lay down and reap what you did not sow.'
Luke 19:22 "He *said to him, 'By your own words I will judge you, you worthless slave. Did you know that I am an exacting man, taking up what I did not lay down and reaping what I did not sow?
Luke 19:23 'Then why did you not put my money in the bank, and having come, I would have collected it with interest?'
Luke 19:24 "Then he said to the bystanders, 'Take the mina away from him and give it to the one who has the ten minas.'
Luke 19:25 "And they said to him, 'Master, he has ten minas already.'
Luke 19:26 "I tell you that to everyone who has, more shall be given, but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away.
Luke 19:27 "But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them in my presence."
Luke 19:28 ¶ After He had said these things, He was going on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
Luke 19:29 ¶ When He approached Bethphage and Bethany, near the mount that is called Olivet, He sent two of the disciples,
Luke 19:30 saying, "Go into the village ahead of you; there, as you enter, you will find a colt tied on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here.
Luke 19:31 "If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' you shall say, 'The Lord has need of it.'"
Luke 19:32 So those who were sent went away and found it just as He had told them.
Luke 19:33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt?"
