9And I sayG3004 to you, 1makeG4160 friendsG5384 for yourselvesG1438 by meansG1537 of the 23wealthG3126 of unrighteousnessG93, soG2443 thatG2443 whenG3752 it 4isG1587 allG1587 goneG1587, 5they will receiveG1209 you into the eternalG166 dwellingsG4633.

10“6The one who is faithfulG4103 in a veryG1646 littleG1646 thingG1646 is alsoG2532 faithfulG4103 in muchG4183; and the one who is unrighteousG94 in a veryG1646 littleG1646 thingG1646 is alsoG2532 unrighteousG94 in muchG4183. 11ThereforeG3767 ifG1487 you have not 7beenG1096 faithfulG4103 in the use of unrighteousG94 89wealthG3126, whoG5101 will entrustG4100 the trueG228 wealth to you? 12And ifG1487 you have not 10beenG1096 faithfulG4103 in the use of that which is another’sG245, whoG5101 will giveG1325 you that which is your own?
