ἐφανέρωσεν δὲ καιροῖς ἰδίοις, τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ ἐν κηρύγματι ὃ ἐπιστεύθην ἐγὼ κατʼ ἐπιταγὴν τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν θεοῦ,

And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:

וְלִתְשׁוּבַ֣ת הַשָּׁנָ֗ה שָׁלַח֙ הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ נְבֽוּכַדְנֶאצַ֔ר וַיְבִאֵ֣הוּ בָבֶ֔לָה עִם־ כְּלֵ֖י חֶמְדַּ֣ת בֵּית־ יְהוָ֑ה וַיַּמְלֵךְ֙ אֶת־ צִדְקִיָּ֣הוּ אָחִ֔יו עַל־ יְהוּדָ֖ה...

एवं ज्ञात्वा कृतं कर्म पूर्वैरपि मुमुक्षुभिः । कुरु कर्मैव तस्मात्त्वं पूर्वैः पूर्वतरं कृतम्

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
