18 And Jesus said to him, Today has salvation come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.19 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.20 And as they heard these things, he added and spoke a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and [because] they supposed that the kingdom of God was immediately to appear.21 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.22 And he called ten slaves of his, and gave them 10,000, and said to them, Trade{} until I come.
