Exegesis
Within these clauses the negated aorists ouk ethēkas {οὐκ ἔθηκας | ouk éthēkas} and ouk espeiras {οὐκ ἔσπειρας | ouk éspeiras} contrast what the master did not do in the past (not depositing, not sowing) with what he is accused of doing now (taking up, reaping).
In context — Luke 19:21
For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man; you take up what you did not deposit, and you reap what you did not sow .
