had a reckoning with them. The one
who had received the five talents came
and brought five more, and saids
Sir, it was five talents that you
entrusted to me: see, have gained
five more
"'You have done well. good and
trustworthy servant" replied his
master; you have been trustworthy in
the management OF little, I will put
you in charge of much: share your
masters joy
1.-The second, who had received the
two talents, came and said,
Sir, it was two talents you en-
trusted to me: see, 1 have gained two
more
"'Good and trustworthy servant,
you have done WE'LL his master re-
piled; you have been trustworthy in
the management of a little, will put
you in charge of much: share your
masters joy
But. next, the man who had the
one talent in his keeping came and
said,
Sir. I knew you to be a severe
man, reapinR where you had mot sown
and garnerfng what you had not win
| moved. So being afraid I went and
buried your talent in the ground:
there you have what belongs to you.
You wicked and slothful servant
replied his master, did you know that
garner what I have not winnowed?
Your duty then was to deposit my
| money in some bank, and SO when
] came I should have got back my prop
erty with interest. So take away the
talent from him, and give it to the
man who has the tep.' (For to every
one who has. more shall be given, and
| he shall have abundance; but from
| him who has nothing, even what he
has shall be taken away) But as for
this worthless servant put him out
into the darkness outside;-there will
| be weeping and the crashing of teeth.
The Sheep and the Goats
l. when the Son of Man comes in His
| glory, and all the angels with Him,
then will He sit upon his glorious
! throne, and all the nations will be
! gathered into His presence. And He
will separate them from one another,
just as shepherd separates the sheep
from the goats; ana will make the
sheep stand at His right hand. and
the goats at His left.
r. Then the King will say to those at
His right,
! "'Come, my Fathers blessed ones,
receive your inheritance of the King
| dom which has been divinely intended
Tor you ever since the creation of the
world. For when 1 was hungry, you
gave me food; when was thirsty, you
| gave me drink; when I was homeless,
you gave me a welcome; when 1 was
| ill-clad, you clothed me; when 1 was
sick, you visited me; when was in
prison, you came to see me-
/ when, Lord, the righteous will
reply, did we see Thee hungry, and
| feed Thee; or thirsty, and give Thee
drink? When did we see Thee home
less. and give Thee welcome? or
| iN-clad, and clothe Thee? When did
We see Thee sick or in prison, and
| come to see Thee?
! But the King will answer them,
I'm solemn truth I tell you that
| in SO far as you rendered such services
to one of the humblest of these my
brethren, you rendered them to
4 myself
Then will He say to those at His
left.
l. "'Begone from me, with the curse
tresting upon you, into the Fire~of the
Ages. which has been prepared for the
Devil and his angels. For when I was
/ hungry, you gave me nothing to eat;
when thirsty. you gave me nothing to
4 drink: when homeless. you gave me
no welcome; ill-clad, you clothed me
| not: sick or in prison, you visited me
not
Then will they also answer.
| z" Lord, when did we see Thee hun
cry or thirsty or homeless or ili-clad or
! sick or in prison. and not come to
serve Thee?'
But he will reply.
"Tn solemn truth 1 telfyou that in
so far as you withheld such services
from one of the humblest of these,
you withheld them from me-
And these shall go away into the
/ Punishment of the Ages, but the
righteous into the Life OF the Ages"
