10 Car le Fils de l’homme est venu chercher et sauver ce qui était perdu.
11 Ils écoutaient ces choses, et Jésus ajouta une parabole, parce qu’il était près de Jérusalem, et qu’on croyait qu’à l’instant le royaume de Dieu allait paraître.
12 Il dit donc: Un homme de haute naissance s’en alla dans un pays lointain, pour se faire investir de l’autorité royale, et revenir ensuite.
13 Il appela dix de ses serviteurs, leur donna dix mines, et leur dit: Faites-les valoir jusqu’à ce que je revienne.
