Matthew 25:25-35

25 So I was afraid. I went out and hid your $2,000 in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.'

26 "His master replied, 'You evil, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not planted? You knew that I gather crops where I have not scattered seed?

27 Well then, you should have put my money in the bank. When I returned, I would have received it back with interest.'

28 "Then his master commanded the other servants, 'Take the $2,000 from him. Give it to the one who has $20,000.

29 Everyone who has will be given more. He will have more than enough. And what about anyone who doesn't have? Even what he has will be taken away from him.

30 Throw that worthless servant outside. There in the darkness, people will sob and grind their teeth.'

The Sheep and the Goats

31 "The Son of Man will come in all his glory. All the angels will come with him. Then he will sit on his throne in the glory of heaven.

32 All the nations will be gathered in front of him. He will separate the people into two groups. He will be like a shepherd who separates the sheep from the goats.

33 He will put the sheep to his right and the goats to his left.

34 "Then the King will speak to those on his right. He will say, 'My Father has blessed you. Come and take what is yours. It is the kingdom prepared for you since the world was created.

35 I was hungry. And you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty. And you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger. And you invited me in.
