Luke 16:1-18

1AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004 alsoG2532 unto theG3588 disciplesG3101, ThereG1510 wasG1510 a certainG5100 richG4145 manG444, whichG3739 had a stewardG3623; andG2532 theG3588 sameG846 wasG1510 accused unto himG846 thatG3739 heG2532 wasG1510 wasting hisG846 goods.

2AndG2532 heG2532 calledG3004 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, WhatG5101 is thisG3778 thatG3004 IG2532 hearG191 ofG3056 thee? renderG591 theG3588 accountG3056 ofG3056 thy stewardshipG3622; forG1063 thou canst beG2532 noG3756 longerG2089 steward.

3AndG1161 theG3588 stewardG3623 saidG3004 withinG1722 himselfG1438, WhatG5101 shallG2962 IG1473 doG4160, seeing thatG3754 myG1722 lordG2962 taketh awayG851 theG3588 stewardshipG3622 fromG575 meG3004? IG1473 have notG3756 strength toG3004 digG4626; toG3004 begG1871 IG1473 amG2480 ashamedG153.

4IG1473 amG1473 resolved whatG5101 toG1519 doG4160, thatG2443, whenG3752 IG1473 amG1473 putG4160 outG1537 ofG1537 theG3588 stewardshipG3622, theyG3752 mayG2443 receiveG1209 meG1473 intoG1519 theirG1438 houses.

5AndG2532 callingG4341 toG3004 himG2532 eachG1538 oneG1520 ofG2962 hisG1438 lord’sG2962 debtorsG5533, heG2532 saidG3004 toG3004 theG3588 firstG4413, HowG4214 muchG4214 owest thou unto myG3004 lordG2962?

6AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004, A hundredG1540 measuresG943 ofG3004 oilG1637. AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, TakeG1209 thy bond, andG2532 sitG2523 downG2523 quicklyG5030 andG2532 writeG1125 fiftyG4004.

7ThenG2532 saidG3004 heG2532 toG3004 anotherG2087, AndG2532 howG4214 muchG4214 owest thou? AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004, A hundredG1540 measuresG2884 ofG3004 wheatG4621. HeG2532 saith unto himG846, TakeG1209 thy bond, andG2532 writeG1125 fourscore.

8AndG2532 hisG4160 lordG2962 commendedG1867 theG3588 unrighteousG93 stewardG3623 becauseG3754 heG2532 hadG1510 doneG4160 wisely: forG1519 theG3588 sonsG5207 ofG5207 thisG3778 worldG165 areG1510 forG1519 theirG1438 ownG1438 generationG1074 wiser thanG5228 theG3588 sonsG5207 ofG5207 theG3588 lightG5457.

9AndG2532 IG1473 sayG3004 unto youG5210, MakeG4160 toG1519 yourselvesG1438 friendsG5384 byG1537 meansG3004 ofG1537 theG3588 mammon ofG1537 unrighteousnessG93; thatG2443, whenG3752 itG4160 shallG2532 failG1587, theyG2532 mayG2532 receiveG1209 youG5210 intoG1519 theG3588 eternalG166 tabernaclesG4633.

10HeG2532 thatG1510 isG1510 faithfulG4103 inG1722 aG1510 veryG4183 littleG1646 isG1510 faithfulG4103 alsoG2532 inG1722 muchG4183: andG2532 heG2532 thatG1510 isG1510 unrighteousG94 inG1722 aG1510 veryG4183 littleG1646 isG1510 unrighteousG94 alsoG2532 inG1722 muchG4183.

11IfG1487 thereforeG3767 ye have notG3756 beenG1096 faithfulG4103 inG1722 theG3588 unrighteousG94 mammon, whoG3588 willG5101 commit toG1722 yourG1487 trust theG3588 trueG228 riches?

12AndG2532 ifG1487 ye have notG3756 beenG1096 faithfulG4103 inG1722 thatG1096 whichG5101 is another’sG245, whoG3588 willG5101 giveG1325 youG5210 thatG1096 whichG5101 is yourG1487 ownG245?

13NoG3756 servantG3610 canG1410 serveG1398 twoG1417 mastersG2962: forG1063 eitherG2228 heG2532 willG2316 hateG3404 theG3588 oneG1520, andG2532 loveG25 theG3588 otherG2087; orG2228 elseG2087 heG2532 willG2316 hold toG1410 oneG1520, andG2532 despiseG2706 theG3588 otherG2087. Ye cannotG3756 serveG1398 GodG2316 andG2532 mammon.

14AndG2532 theG3956 PhariseesG5330, whoG3588 were loversG5366 ofG3956 moneyG5366, heardG191 allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778; andG2532 theyG846 scoffed at himG846.

15AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, Ye areG1510 theyG846 thatG3754 justifyG1344 yourselvesG1438 inG1722 theG3588 sightG1799 ofG2316 menG444; butG1161 GodG2316 knoweth yourG2532 heartsG2588: forG3754 thatG3754 whichG3748 isG1510 exaltedG5308 amongG1722 menG444 isG1510 anG1510 abominationG946 inG1722 theG3588 sightG1799 ofG2316 GodG2316.

16TheG3956 lawG3551 andG2532 theG3956 prophetsG4396 were untilG3360 JohnG2491: fromG575 thatG3956 timeG5119 theG3956 gospelG2097 ofG932 theG3956 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316 is preachedG2097, andG2532 everyG3956 manG2316 entereth violently intoG1519 itG846.

17ButG1161 itG1161 isG1510 easierG2123 forG1520 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093 toG2532 passG3928 awayG3928, thanG2228 forG1520 oneG1520 tittle ofG3551 theG3588 lawG3551 toG2532 fallG4098.

18EveryG3956 oneG3588 thatG3956 putteth awayG630 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 marrieth anotherG2087, committeth adulteryG3431: andG2532 heG2532 thatG3956 marrieth oneG3588 thatG3956 is put awayG630 fromG575 a husbandG435 committeth adulteryG3431.
