Exegesis
Each participle is expanded by a relative clause ho ouk ethēka / ho ouk espeira {ὃ οὐκ ἔθηκα / ὃ οὐκ ἔσπειρα | hó ouk é-thē-ka / hó ouk é-spei-ra}, with ho as the object of the participles and ethēka / espeira supplying first person singular verbal actions negated by ouk. The parallelism of “taking up what I did not lay down” and “reaping what I did not sow” reinforces the portrait of severity and accentuates the servant’s stated perception, which then serves as the standard for his own judgment.
