American King James Version
"For I feared you, because you are an austere man: you take up that you layed not down, and reap that you did not sow. "
— Luke 19:21, American King James Version
“For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.”
“for I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that which thou layedst not down, and reapest that which thou didst not sow. ”
“for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn't lay down, and reap that which you didn't sow.'”
“For I was afraid of you, because you are a severe man. You withdraw what you did not deposit and reap what you did not sow.’”
“For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up what thou didst not lay down: and thou reapest that which thou didst not sow.”
“Because I was in fear of you, for you are a hard man: you take up what you have not put down, and get in grain where you have not put seed.”
“For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.”
And the second came, saying, Lord, your pound has gained five pounds.
And he said likewise to him, Be you also over five cities.
And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is your pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
For I feared you, because you are an austere man: you take up that you layed not down, and reap that you did not sow.
And he says to him, Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
Why then gave not you my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required my own with usury?
And he said to them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that has ten pounds.
