Luke 19:12-14

Easy-to-Read Version

¹² So he said, “A very important man was preparing to go to a country far away to be made a king. Then he planned to return home and rule his people. ¹³ So he called ten of his servants together. He gave a bag of money^[a] to each servant. He said, ‘Do business with this money until I come back.’ ¹⁴ But the people in the kingdom hated the man. They sent a group to follow him to the other country. There they said, ‘We don’t want this man to be our king.’
