Luke 16:13-15

131No 2servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and 34wealth.”

14Now the Pharisees, who were 5lovers of money, were listening to all these things and 6were scoffing at Him. 15And He said to them, “You are those who 7justify yourselves 8in the sight of men, but 9God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable 10in the sight of God.
