servants So the {servants} of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? servants He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The {servants} said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? servants Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his {servants}. servants And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his {servants} to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. servants And the husbandmen took his {servants}, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. servants Again, he sent other {servants} more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. servants And sent forth his {servants} to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. servants Again, he sent forth other {servants}, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and [my] fatlings [are] killed, and all things [are] ready: come unto the marriage. servants And the remnant took his {servants}, and entreated [them] spitefully, and slew [them]. servants Then saith he to his {servants}, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. servants So those {servants} went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. servants Then said the king to the {servants}, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast [him] into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. servants For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man travelling into a far country, [who] called his own {servants}, and delivered unto them his goods. servants After a long time the lord of those {servants} cometh, and reckoneth with them. servants [For the Son of man is] as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his {servants}, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. servants Blessed [are] those {servants}, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. servants And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find [them] so, blessed are those {servants}. servants And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired {servants} of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! servants And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired {servants}. servants But the father said to his {servants}, Bring forth the best robe, and put [it] on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on [his] feet: servants And he called one of the {servants}, and asked what these things meant. servants So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable {servants}: we have done that which was our duty to do. servants And he called his ten {servants}, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. servants 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. servants Henceforth I call you not {servants}; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. servants My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my {servants} fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. servants Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my {servants} to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. ~~~~~~
