16Now He was also saying to the disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and this [steward] was reported to him as squandering his possessions.G1161G3004G2532G4314G846G3101G2258G5100G4145G444G3739G2192G3623G2532G3778G1225G846G5613G1287G846G5224 2"And he called him and said to him, 'What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.'G2532G5455G846G2036G846G5101G191G5124G4012G4675G591G3056G4675G3622G1063G1410G3756G2089G3621 3"And the steward said to himself, 'What shall I do, since my master is taking the stewardship away from me? I am not strong enough to dig; I am ashamed to beg.G1161G3623G2036G1722G1438G5101G4160G3754G3450G2962G851G575G1700G3622G3756G2480G4626G1871G153 4'I know what I shall do, so that when I am removed from the stewardship, they will receive me into their homes.'G1097G5101G4160G2443G3752G3179G3622G1209G3165G1519G846G3624 5"And he summoned each one of his master's debtors, and he [began] saying to the first, 'How much do you owe my master?'G2532G4341G1538G1520G1438G2962G5533G3004G4413G4214G3784G3450G2962 6"And he said, 'A hundred measures of oil.' And he said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'G1161G2036G1540G943G1637G2532G2036G846G1209G4675G1121G2532G2523G5030G1125G4004 7"Then he said to another, 'And how much do you owe?' And he said, ' A hundred measures of wheat. 'He said to him,' Take your bill, and write eighty. 'G1899G2036G2087G1161G4214G3784G4771G1161G2036G1540G2884G4621G2532G3004G846G1209G4675G1121G2532G1125G3589 8"And his master praised the unrighteous steward because he had acted shrewdly; for the sons of this age are more shrewd in relation to their own kind than the sons of light.G2532G2962G1867G93G3623G3754G4160G5430G3754G5207G5127G165G1526G1519G1438G1074G5429G5228G5207G5457 9"And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that when it fails, they may receive you into the eternal dwellings.G2504G3004G5213G4160G1438G5384G1537G3126G93G2443G3752G1587G1209G5209G1519G166G4633 10"He who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much; and he who is unrighteous in a very little thing is unrighteous also in much.G4103G1722G1646G2076G4103G2532G1722G4183G2532G94G1722G1646G2076G94G2532G1722G4183 11"If therefore you have not been faithful in the [use of] unrighteous mammon, who will entrust the true [riches] to you?G1487G3767G1096G3756G1096G4103G1722G94G3126G5101G4100G5213G4100G228 12"And if you have not been faithful in [the use of] that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own?G2532G1487G1096G3756G1096G4103G1722G245G5101G1325G5213G5212 13"No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other, or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."G3762G3610G1410G1398G1417G2962G1063G2228G3404G1520G2532G25G2087G2228G472G1520G2532G2706G2087G3756G1410G1398G2316G2532G3126 14Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were listening to all these things, and they were scoffing at Him.G1161G5330G2532G5225G5366G191G3956G5023G2532G1592G846 15And He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God.G2532G2036G846G5210G2075G1344G1438G1799G444G1161G2316G1097G5216G2588G3754G5308G1722G444G2076G946G1799G2316 16"The Law and the Prophets [were proclaimed] until John; since then the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.G3551G2532G4396G2193G2491G575G5119G932G2316G2097G2532G3956G971G1519G846 17"But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter of the Law to fail.G1161G2076G2123G3772G2532G1093G3928G2228G3391G2762G3551G4098 18"Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and he who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.G3956G630G846G1135G2532G1060G2087G3431G2532G3956G1060G630G575G435G3431 19"Now there was a certain rich man, and he habitually dressed in purple and fine linen, gaily living in splendor every day.G1161G2258G5100G4145G444G2532G1737G4209G2532G1040G2165G2988G2596G2250 20"And a certain poor man named Lazarus was laid at his gate, covered with sores,G1161G2258G5100G4434G3686G2976G3739G906G4314G846G4440G1669 21and longing to be fed with the [crumbs] which were falling from the rich man's table; besides, even the dogs were coming and licking his sores.G2532G1937G5526G575G5589G3588G4098G575G4145G5132G235G2532G2965G2064G621G846G1668 22"Now it came about that the poor man died and he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom; and the rich man also died and was buried.G1161G1096G4434G599G2532G667G5259G32G1519G11G2859G4145G1161G2532G599G2532G2290 23"And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far away, and Lazarus in his bosom.G2532G1722G86G1869G846G3788G5225G1722G931G3708G11G3113G575G2532G2976G1722G846G2859 24"And he cried out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue; for I am in agony in this flame.'G2532G846G5455G2036G3962G11G1653G3165G2532G3992G2976G2443G911G206G846G1147G5204G2532G2711G3450G1100G3754G3600G1722G5026G5395 25"But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that during your life you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus bad things; but now he is being comforted here, and you are in agony.G1161G11G2036G5043G3415G3754G4771G1722G4675G2222G618G4675G18G2532G3668G2976G2556G1161G3568G3592G3870G1161G4771G3600 26'And besides all this, between us and you there is a great chasm fixed, in order that those who wish to come over from here to you may not be able, and [that] none may cross over from there to us.'G2532G1909G3956G5125G3342G2257G2532G5216G4741G3173G5490G4741G3704G2309G1224G1782G4314G5209G3361G1410G3366G1276G4314G2248G1564 27"And he said, 'Then I beg you, Father, that you send him to my father's house—G1161G2036G2065G4571G3767G3962G2443G3992G846G1519G3450G3962G3624 28for I have five brothers— that he may warn them, lest they also come to this place of torment.
