Where in the Bible does it talk about giving and receiving back tenfold?

Question

Is this even in the Bible or is it just something that people say? Also, is this seen in other religions? Thanks! (I'm giving a speech and part of it is related to this)

OK, I think I found something like it in Luke 19:11 (pretty much the same parable as Matthew 25:14 - guess Jesus liked to repeat himself)

My username comes from a song my high school choir sang - you're close, I had heard it translated as "there comes a gentle breeze"...but you didn't try to answer my question!

Answer 1

No ten but;
(Mark 10:29-31) . . .Jesus said: “Truly I say to YOU men, No one has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for the sake of the good news 30 who will not get a hundredfold now in this period of time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, with persecutions, and in the coming system of things everlasting life. 31 However, many that are first will be last, and the last first.”

(Proverbs 19:17) He that is showing favor to the lowly one is lending to Jehovah, and his treatment He will repay to him.

(Luke 6:38) Practice giving, and people will give to YOU. They will pour into YOUR laps a fine measure, pressed down, shaken together and overflowing. For with the measure that YOU are measuring out, they will measure out to YOU in return.”
(Acts 20:35) . . .I have exhibited to YOU in all things that by thus laboring YOU must assist those who are weak, and must bear in mind the words of the Lord Jesus, when he himself said, ‘There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.’”

Answer 2

Tenfold Bible

Answer 3

You can look in Mark 4:8; Mark 10:30; and Matthew 13:23, but none of them discuss tenfold.
You might look also into Proverbs 6:30-31 and be sure to read Luke 6:38.

There's no verse like that. Scripture would never intimate karma, which is totally against God's wisdom. What scripture does say is that in certain situations, a person should pay back the person they stole from ten times what they stole. In certain situations the amount the thief is required to pay back (again --- according to levitical law) is 3 times the amount stolen, in certain 4, in certain 5. etc. It depends on the item stolen. I'm looking up that reference for you and will post it as soon as I find it. Exodus 22:1 “If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and kills it or sells it, he shall repay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep. 7 “If a man gives to his neighbor money or goods to keep safe, and it is stolen from the man's house, then, if the thief is found, he shall pay double." Sorry, I can't seem to put my hands on the verse that says 10 times, though I've read it and know what you're talking about. But really pray about this sister. Leave this in the Lord's hands. Remember how David treated Saul when Saul was *after David's life*. The Lord commands us to leave room for His vengeance in Romans. Romans 12:19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”

Answer 5

Well, I don't know about the "tenfold," but the Bible does say, in Malachi 3:10-11:

Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, and "see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."

-NIV
