OF THE LAST JUDGMENT.

said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: thou oughtest therefore to have put my 27 money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. Take therefore the 28

talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall 29 have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken

away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofit- 30 able servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, 31 Mat xxv.31-46. and all the holy angels with him, then shall he Mount Olivet. sit upon the throne of his glory and before 32 him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: and he shall set the sheep on his right 33 hand, but the goats on the left.

Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, 34 Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom_prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was 35 an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: naked, 36 and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous 37 answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When 38 saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, 39 and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say 40 unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, De- 41 part from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was an hungred, and ye 42

Peter saith unto him, Jesus answered him, If

Thou shalt never wash my feet. 9 I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also 10 and my head. Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean 11 and ye are clean, but not all. For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
