Luke 16:9-13
9And I sayG3004 to you, 1makeG4160 friendsG5384 for yourselvesG1438 by meansG1537 of the 23wealthG3126 of unrighteousnessG93, soG2443 that whenG3752 it failsG1587, 4they will receiveG1209 you into the eternalG166 dwellingsG4633.
10“5He who is faithfulG4103 in a veryG1646 littleG1646 thingG1646 is faithfulG4103 alsoG2532 in muchG4183; and he who is unrighteousG94 in a veryG1646 littleG1646 thingG1646 is unrighteousG94 alsoG2532 in muchG4183. 11ThereforeG3767 ifG1487 you have not beenG1096 faithfulG4103 in the use of unrighteousG94 67wealthG3126, whoG5101 will entrustG4100 the trueG228 riches to you? 12And ifG1487 you have not beenG1096 faithfulG4103 in the use of that which is another’sG245, whoG5101 will giveG1325 you that which is your own? 138NoG3762 9servantG3610 canG1410 serveG1398 twoG1417 mastersG2962; for eitherG2228 he will hateG3404 the oneG1520 and loveG25 the otherG2087, orG2228 elseG2228 he will be devotedG472 to oneG1520 and despiseG2706 the otherG2087. You cannotG1410G3756 serveG1398 GodG2316 and 1011wealthG3126.”
