- 1. And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
- 2. And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
- 3. Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
- 4. I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
- 5. So he called every one of his lord
- 6. And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
- 7. Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.
- 8. And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.
- 9. And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
- 10. He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
- 11. If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
- 12. And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man
- 13. No servant can 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. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
- 14. And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
- 15. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
- 16. The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
- 17. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
- 18. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.
- 19. There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
- 20. And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
- 21. And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man
- 22. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham
- 23. And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
- 24. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
- 25. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
- 26. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
- 27. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father
- 28. For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
- 29. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
- 30. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
- 31. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
