New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁴ But the citizens of his country hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, “We do not want this man to rule over us.” ¹⁵ When he returned, having received royal power, he ordered these slaves, to whom he had given the money, to be summoned so that he might find out what they had gained by trading. ¹⁶ The first came forward and said, “Lord, your pound has made ten more pounds.”
