New American Standard Bible 1995
Luke 16:9-13
9And I say to you, 1make friends for yourselves by means of the 23wealth of unrighteousness, so that when it fails, 4they will receive you into the eternal dwellings.
10“5He 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. 11Therefore if you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous 67wealth, who will entrust the true riches to you? 12And if you have not been faithful in the use of that which is another’s, who will give you that which is your own? 138No 9servant 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 1011wealth.”
