12 Dijo pues: Un hombre noble partió á una provincia lejos, para tomar para sí un reino, y volver.

13 Mas llamados diez siervos suyos, les dió diez minas, y díjoles: Negociad entre tanto que vengo.

14 Empero sus ciudadanos le aborrecían, y enviaron tras de él una embajada, diciendo: No queremos que éste reine sobre nosotros.

15 Y aconteció, que vuelto él, habiendo tomado el reino, mandó llamar á sí á aquellos siervos á los cuales había dado el dinero, para saber lo que había negociado cada uno.

16 Y vino el primero, diciendo: Señor, tu mina ha ganado diez minas.
