Gospel of the Day – Luke 19:12-27

“And he said, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. And he called ten of his servants, and gave them ten minas, and said unto them,

Trade with him until I come. But his citizens hated him, and sent ambassadors after him, saying, We do not want this man to reign over us.

And it came to pass, when he returned, after he had received the kingdom, that he commanded those servants to whom he had given the money to be called unto him, that he might know what every man had gained by trading.

And the first came, saying, Lord, thy mina hath earned ten minas.
And he said to him, Well done, good servant; because you have been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.

And the second came, saying, Lord, thy mina hath earned five minas.
And to him also he said, Be thou also over five cities. And another came, saying,

Sir, here is your mina, which I kept in a handkerchief;
For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man, taking what you did not lay down and reaping what you did not sow.

But he said to him, "I wicked servant, out of your own mouth I will judge you. You knew that I am a harsh man, taking up what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow.

Why then did you not put my money in the bank, so that when I came I might have demanded it with interest? And he said to those who were with him, "Take the mina from him and give it to the one who has ten minas."

(And they said unto him, Sir, he hath ten pounds.)
For I tell you that whoever has, more will be given, but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

And as for those enemies of mine who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and kill them before me.“.
