Luke 16:2-13

And
<2532>
he called
<5455> (5660)
him
<846>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)
unto him
<846>_,
How
<5101>
is it that I hear
<191> (5719)
this
<5124>
of
<4012>
thee
<4675>_?
give
<591> (5628)
an account
<3056>
of thy
<4675>
stewardship
<3622>_;
for
<1063>
thou mayest be
<1410> (5695)
no
<3756>
longer
<2089>
steward
<3621> (5721)_.
Then
<1161>
the steward
<3623>
said
<2036> (5627)
within
<1722>
himself
<1438>_,
What
<5101>
shall I do
<4160> (5661)_?
for
<3754>
my
<3450>
lord
<2962>
taketh away
<851> (5731)
from
<575>
me
<1700>
the stewardship
<3622>_:
I cannot
<3756> <2480> (5719)
dig
<4626> (5721)_;
to beg
<1871> (5721)
I am ashamed
<153> (5727)_.
I am resolved
<1097> (5627)
what
<5101>
to do
<4160> (5692)_,
that
<2443>_,
when
<3752>
I am put out
<3179> (5686)
of the stewardship
<3622>_,
they may receive
<1209> (5667)
me
<3165>
into
<1519>
their
<846>
houses
<3624>_.
So
<2532>
he called
<4341> (5666)
every
<1538>
one
<1520>
of his
<1438>
lord's
<2962>
debtors
<5533>
[unto him], and said
<3004> (5707)
unto the first
<4413>_,
How much
<4214>
owest thou
<3784> (5719)
unto my
<3450>
lord
<2962>_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,
An hundred
<1540>
measures
<943>
of oil
<1637>_.
And
<2532>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto him
<846>_,
Take
<1209> (5663)
thy
<4675>
bill
<1121>_,
and
<2532>
sit down
<2523> (5660)
quickly
<5030>_,
and write
<1125> (5657)
fifty
<4004>_.
{measures: the word Batus in the original containeth nine gallons three quarts}
Then
<1899>
said he
<2036> (5627)
to another
<2087>_,
And
<1161>
how much
<4214>
owest
<3784> (5719)
thou
<4771>_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,
An hundred
<1540>
measures
<2884>
of wheat
<4621>_.
And
<2532>
he said
<3004> (5719)
unto him
<846>_,
Take
<1209> (5663)
thy
<4675>
bill
<1121>_,
and
<2532>
write
<1125> (5657)
fourscore
<3589>_.
{measures: the word here interpreted a measure in the original containeth about fourteen bushels and two quarts}
And
<2532>
the lord
<2962>
commended
<1867> (5656)
the unjust
<93>
steward
<3623>_,
because
<3754>
he had done
<4160> (5656)
wisely
<5430>_:
for
<3754>
the children
<5207>
of this
<5127>
world
<165>
are
<1526> (5748)
in
<1519>
their
<1438>
generation
<1074>
wiser
<5429>
than
<5228>
the children
<5207>
of light
<5457>_.
And I
<2504>
say
<3004> (5719)
unto you
<5213>_,
Make
<4160> (5657)
to yourselves
<1438>
friends
<5384>
of
<1537>
the mammon
<3126>
of unrighteousness
<93>_;
that
<2443>_,
when
<3752>
ye fail
<1587> (5632)_,
they may receive
<1209> (5667)
you
<5209>
into
<1519>
everlasting
<166>
habitations
<4633>_.
{mammon: or, riches}
He that is faithful
<4103>
in
<1722>
that which is least
<1646>
is
<2076> (5748)
faithful
<4103>
also
<2532>
in
<1722>
much
<4183>_:
and
<2532>
he that is unjust
<94>
in
<1722>
the least
<1646>
is
<2076> (5748)
unjust
<94>
also
<2532>
in
<1722>
much
<4183>_.
If
<1487>
therefore
<3767>
ye have
<1096> (0)
not
<3756>
been
<1096> (5633)
faithful
<4103>
in
<1722>
the unrighteous
<94>
mammon
<3126>_,
who
<5101>
will commit
<4100> (0)
to your
<5213>
trust
<4100> (5692)
the true
<228>
[riches]? {mammon: or, riches}
And
<2532>
if
<1487>
ye have
<1096> (0)
not
<3756>
been
<1096> (5633)
faithful
<4103>
in
<1722>
that which is another man's
<245>_,
who
<5101>
shall give
<1325> (5692)
you
<5213>
that which is your own
<5212>_?
No
<3762>
servant
<3610>
can
<1410> (5736)
serve
<1398> (5721)
two
<1417>
masters
<2962>_:
for
<1063>
either
<2228>
he will hate
<3404> (5692)
the one
<1520>_,
and
<2532>
love
<25> (5692)
the other
<2087>_;
or else
<2228>
he will hold
<472> (5695)
to the one
<1520>_,
and
<2532>
despise
<2706> (5692)
the other
<2087>_.
Ye cannot
<3756> <1410> (5736)
serve
<1398> (5721)
God
<2316>
and
<2532>
mammon
<3126>_.
