I understand the meaning of the parable, but it seems to me that the parable itself ends at verse 25 and Jesus takes over from there. Verse 26 and 27 are as follows:
26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
Notice at the statement in bold at the beginning of verse 25. That very statement denotes that the parable has been told and Jesus is giving his meaning of the parable as it relates to him and 'the father'.
