But when the Master receives the talents, He approves and rewards the workers as though the merit were all their own. His countenance is full of joy and satisfaction. He is filled with delight that He can bestow blessings upon them. For every service and every sacrifice He requites them, not because it is a debt He owes, but because His heart is overflowing with love and tenderness.

Men når Mesteren modtager talenterne, roser og belønner han tjenerne, som om fortjenesten skyldtes dem selv Hans ansigt lyser af glæde og tilfredshed. Han fryder sig over at han kan tildele dem sine velsignelser Han belønner dem for hver tjeneste og for hvert offer ikke fordi han skylder dem noget, men fordi hans hjerte strømmer over af kærlighed og ømhed.
