2kept laid away in a
ahandkerchief;

1harsh man: you withdraw what you did not deposit, and you reap what you did
anot sow.
Luke 19
:22
19:22

1judge you,
awicked slave. You knew that I am a harsh man, withdrawing what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow.

Why then did you not put my money
1in the bank, and when I came, I would have collected it with interest?
