Luke:16:1-15
vw@Luke:16:1 @ He also said to His disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods.
vw@Luke:16:2 @ So 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.
vw@Luke:16:3 @ Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? For my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I am not able to dig; I am ashamed to beg.
vw@Luke:16:4 @ I know what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
vw@Luke:16:5 @ So he called every one of his masters debtors to him, and said to the first, How much do you owe my master?
vw@Luke:16:6 @ And he said, A hundred measures of oil. So he said to him, Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.
vw@Luke:16:7 @ Then he said to another, And how much do you owe? So he said, A hundred measures of wheat. And he said to him, Take your bill, and write eighty.
vw@Luke:16:8 @ So the master commended the unjust steward because he had acted prudently. For the sons of this world are more prudent in their generation than the sons of light.
vw@Luke:16:9 @ And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when it fails, they may receive you into eternal dwellings.
vw@Luke:16:10 @ He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.
vw@Luke:16:11 @ Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true?
vw@Luke:16:12 @ And if you have not been faithful in what is another mans, who will give you what is your own?
vw@Luke:16:13 @ No servant is able to serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. It is not possible to serve God and mammon.
vw@Luke:16:14 @ Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they derided Him.
vw@Luke:16:15 @ And He said to them, You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.
