Bible verse
For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions.
Matthew 25:14 · BSB
The verses around it, from Matthew 25.
10 But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom arrived. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, and the door was shut.
11 Later the other virgins arrived and said, ‘Lord, lord, open the door for us!’
12 But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’
13 Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
14 For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions.
15 To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent—each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey.
16 The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put them to work and gained five more.
17 Likewise, the one with the two talents gained two more.
18 But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
