For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man. You withdraw what you did not deposit and reap what you did not sow.’
In context
19 And to this one he said, ‘You shall have authority over five cities.’
20 Then another servant came and said, ‘Master, here is your mina, which I have laid away in a piece of cloth.
21 For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man. You withdraw what you did not deposit and reap what you did not sow.’
22 His master replied, ‘You wicked servant, I will judge you by your own words. So you knew that I am a harsh man, withdrawing what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow?
23 Why then did you not deposit my money in the bank, and upon my return I could have collected it with interest?’
