Matthew 25:26-36

26 The master answered, 'You are a wicked and lazy servant! You say you knew that I harvest things I did not plant and that I gather crops where I did not sow any seed.
27 So you should have put my gold in the bank. Then, when I came home, I would have received my gold back with interest.'
28 "So the master told his other servants, 'Take the bag of gold from that servant and give it to the servant who has ten bags of gold.
29 Those who have much will get more, and they will have much more than they need. But those who do not have much will have everything taken away from them.'
30 Then the master said, 'Throw that useless servant outside, into the darkness where people will cry and grind their teeth with pain.'
31 "The Son of Man will come again in his great glory, with all his angels. He will be King and sit on his great throne.
32 All the nations of the world will be gathered before him, and he will separate them into two groups as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 The Son of Man will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
34 "Then the King will say to the people on his right, 'Come, my Father has given you his blessing. Receive the kingdom God has prepared for you since the world was made.
35 I was hungry, and you gave me food. I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink. I was alone and away from home, and you invited me into your house.
36 I was without clothes, and you gave me something to wear. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.'
