Jesus called the disciples over to Him and began to speak to them in parables:
“How can Satan drive out Satan?
If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand;
his end has come.
In fact, no one can enter a strong man’s house without first tying him up.
Then he can plunder the strong man’s house.

Jesus said,
“This is what the kingdom of God is like.
A man scatters seed on the ground.
Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up,
The seed sprouts and grows,
Though he does not know how.
All by itself the soil produces grain—
first the stalk, then the head, then the full kernel to the head.
As soon as the grain is ripe,
He puts the sickle to it, because the harvest has come.”

“Again, it will be like a man going on a journey,
Who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them.
To one he gave five bags of gold, to another two bags, and to another one bag,
Each according to his ability.
Then he went on his journey.
The man who had received five bags of gold went at once
And put his money to work and gained five bags more.
So also, the one with two bags of gold gained two more.
But the man who had received one bag went off,
Dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.
After a long time, the master of those servants
Returned and settled accounts with them.
The man who had received five bags of gold
Brought the other five.
‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold.
See, I have gained five more.’
His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant!
You have been faithful with a few things.
I will put you in charge of many things.
Come and share your master’s happiness!’
The man with two bags of gold also came.
‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with two bags of gold;
See, I have gained two more.’
His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant!
You have been faithful with a few things;
I will put you in charge of many things.
Come and share your master’s happiness!’
Then the man who had received one bag of gold came.
‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man,
Harvesting where you have not sown and gathering
Where you have not scattered seed.
So, I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground.
See, here is what belongs to you.’
His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant!
So, you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather
Where I have not scattered seed?
Well, then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers,
So that when I returned, I would have received it back with interest.
So, take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags.
For whoever has will be given more,
And they will have an abundance.
Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.
And throw that worthless servant outside,
Into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’”
