Exegesis

The direct object se {σε | se} follows krinō, and the vocative phrase ponēre doule {πονηρὲ δοῦλε | po-nē-ré doû-le} directly addresses the servant and characterizes him morally.

In contextLuke 19:22

He said to him, “Out of your mouth I judge you, wicked servant . You knew that I am an austere man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow.”
