14 For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man traveling into a far country, [who] called his own servants, and delivered to them his goods.
15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and forthwith took his journey.
16 Then he that had received the five talents, went and traded with the same, and gained other five talents.
17 And likewise he that [had received] two, he also gained other two.
18 But he that had received one, went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
