Luke 19:16

‹But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this› [man] ‹to reign over us.›

‹And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.›

‹And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.›

‹And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.›
