The nobleman uses a question to rebuke the wicked servant. Alternate translation: "you should have put my money ... interest." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
"lent my money to a bank." Cultures that do not have banks might translate it as "let someone borrow my money."
# bank
A bank is a business that safely holds money for people. A bank lends that money to others for a profit. Therefore it pays an extra amount, or interest, to the people who keep their money in the bank.
# I would have collected it with interest
"I could have collected that amount plus the interest it would have earned" or "I would have gained a profit from it"
# interest
Interest is money that a bank pays people who put their money in the bank.
