16:2 And [G2532] he called [G5455] him [G846] , and said [G2036] unto him [G846] , How [G5101] is it that I hear [G191] this [G5124] of [G4012] thee [G4675] ? give [G591] an account [G3056] of thy [G4675] stewardship [G3622] ; for [G1063] thou mayest be [G1410] no [G3756] longer [G2089] steward [G3621] .
16:3 Then [G1161] the steward [G3623] said [G2036] within [G1722] himself [G1438] , What [G5101] shall I do [G4160] ? for [G3754] my [G3450] lord [G2962] taketh away [G851] from [G575] me [G1700] the stewardship [G3622] : I cannot [G3756] [G2480] dig [G4626] ; to beg [G1871] I am ashamed [G153] .
16:4 I am resolved [G1097] what [G5101] to do [G4160] , that [G2443] , when [G3752] I am put out [G3179] of the stewardship [G3622] , they may receive [G1209] me [G3165] into [G1519] their [G846] houses [G3624] .
16:5 So [G2532] he called [G4341] every [G1538] one [G1520] of his [G1438] lord's [G2962] debtors [G5533] [unto him], and said [G3004] unto the first [G4413] , How much [G4214] owest thou [G3784] unto my [G3450] lord [G2962] ?
16:6 And [G1161] he said [G2036] , An hundred [G1540] measures [G943] of oil [G1637] . And [G2532] he said [G2036] unto him [G846] , Take [G1209] thy [G4675] bill [G1121] , and [G2532] sit down [G2523] quickly [G5030] , and write [G1125] fifty [G4004] .(measures: the word Batus in the original containeth nine gallons three quarts)
16:7 Then [G1899] said he [G2036] to another [G2087] , And [G1161] how much [G4214] owest [G3784] thou [G4771] ? And [G1161] he said [G2036] , An hundred [G1540] measures [G2884] of wheat [G4621] . And [G2532] he said [G3004] unto him [G846] , Take [G1209] thy [G4675] bill [G1121] , and [G2532] write [G1125] fourscore [G3589] .(measures: the word here interpreted a measure in the original containeth about fourteen bushels and two quarts)
16:8 And [G2532] the lord [G2962] commended [G1867] the unjust [G93] steward [G3623] , because [G3754] he had done [G4160] wisely [G5430] : for [G3754] the children [G5207] of this [G5127] world [G165] are [G1526] in [G1519] their [G1438] generation [G1074] wiser [G5429] than [G5228] the children [G5207] of light [G5457] .
16:9 And I [G2504] say [G3004] unto you [G5213] , Make [G4160] to yourselves [G1438] friends [G5384] of [G1537] the mammon [G3126] of unrighteousness [G93] ; that [G2443] , when [G3752] ye fail [G1587] , they may receive [G1209] you [G5209] into [G1519] everlasting [G166] habitations [G4633] .(mammon: or, riches)
16:10 He that is faithful [G4103] in [G1722] that which is least [G1646] is [G2076] faithful [G4103] also [G2532] in [G1722] much [G4183] : and [G2532] he that is unjust [G94] in [G1722] the least [G1646] is [G2076] unjust [G94] also [G2532] in [G1722] much [G4183] .
16:11 If [G1487] therefore [G3767] ye have [G1096] not [G3756] been [G1096] faithful [G4103] in [G1722] the unrighteous [G94] mammon [G3126] , who [G5101] will commit [G4100] to your [G5213] trust [G4100] the true [G228] [riches]?(mammon: or, riches)
16:12 And [G2532] if [G1487] ye have [G1096] not [G3756] been [G1096] faithful [G4103] in [G1722] that which is another man's [G245] , who [G5101] shall give [G1325] you [G5213] that which is your own [G5212] ?
16:13 No [G3762] servant [G3610] can [G1410] serve [G1398] two [G1417] masters [G2962] : for [G1063] either [G2228] he will hate [G3404] the one [G1520] , and [G2532] love [G25] the other [G2087] ; or else [G2228] he will hold [G472] to the one [G1520] , and [G2532] despise [G2706] the other [G2087] . Ye cannot [G3756] [G1410] serve [G1398] God [G2316] and [G2532] mammon [G3126] .
16:14 And [G1161] the Pharisees [G5330] also [G2532] , who were [G5225] covetous [G5366] , heard [G191] all [G3956] these things [G5023] : and [G2532] they derided [G1592] him [G846] .
16:15 And [G2532] he said [G2036] unto them [G846] , Ye [G5210] are [G2075] they which justify [G1344] yourselves [G1438] before [G1799] men [G444] ; but [G1161] God [G2316] knoweth [G1097] your [G5216] hearts [G2588] : for [G3754] that which is highly esteemed [G5308] among [G1722] men [G444] is [G2076] abomination [G946] in the sight [G1799] of God [G2316] .
16:16 The law [G3551] and [G2532] the prophets [G4396] [were] until [G2193] John [G2491] : since [G575] that time [G5119] the kingdom [G932] of God [G2316] is preached [G2097] , and [G2532] every man [G3956] presseth [G971] into [G1519] it [G846] .
16:17 And [G1161] it is [G2076] easier [G2123] for heaven [G3772] and [G2532] earth [G1093] to pass [G3928] , than [G2228] one [G3391] tittle [G2762] of the law [G3551] to fail [G4098] .
16:18 Whosoever [G3956] putteth away [G630] his [G846] wife [G1135] , and [G2532] marrieth [G1060] another [G2087] , committeth adultery [G3431] : and [G2532] whosoever [G3956] marrieth [G1060] her that is put away [G630] from [G575] [her] husband [G435] committeth adultery [G3431] .
16:19 [G1161] There was [G2258] a certain [G5100] rich [G4145] man [G444] , which [G2532] was clothed [G1737] in purple [G4209] and [G2532] fine linen [G1040] , and fared [G2165] sumptuously [G2988] every [G2596] day [G2250] :
16:20 And [G1161] there was [G2258] a certain [G5100] beggar [G4434] named [G3686] Lazarus [G2976] , which [G3739] was laid [G906] at [G4314] his [G846] gate [G4440] , full of sores [G1669] ,
16:21 And [G2532] desiring [G1937] to be fed [G5526] with [G575] the crumbs [G5589] which [G3588] fell [G4098] from [G575] the rich man's [G4145] table [G5132] : moreover [G235] [G2532] the dogs [G2965] came [G2064] and licked [G621] his [G846] sores [G1668] .
16:22 And [G1161] it came to pass [G1096] , that the beggar [G4434] died [G599] , and [G2532] was carried [G667] by [G5259] the angels [G32] into [G1519] Abraham's [G11] bosom [G2859] : the rich man [G4145] also [G1161] [G2532] died [G599] , and [G2532] was buried [G2290] ;
16:23 And [G2532] in [G1722] hell [G86] he lift up [G1869] his [G846] eyes [G3788] , being [G5225] in [G1722] torments [G931] , and seeth [G3708] Abraham [G11] afar [G3113] off [G575] , and [G2532] Lazarus [G2976] in [G1722] his [G846] bosom [G2859] .
16:24 And [G2532] [G846] he cried [G5455] and said [G2036] , Father [G3962] Abraham [G11] , have mercy [G1653] on me [G3165] , and [G2532] send [G3992] Lazarus [G2976] , that [G2443] he may dip [G911] the tip [G206] of his [G846] finger [G1147] in water [G5204] , and [G2532] cool [G2711] my [G3450] tongue [G1100] ; for [G3754] I am tormented [G3600] in [G1722] this [G5026] flame [G5395] .
16:25 But [G1161] Abraham [G11] said [G2036] , Son [G5043] , remember [G3415] that [G3754] thou [G4771] in [G1722] thy [G4675] lifetime [G2222] receivedst [G618] thy [G4675] good things [G18] , and [G2532] likewise [G3668] Lazarus [G2976] evil things [G2556] : but [G1161] now [G3568] [G3592] he is comforted [G3870] , and [G1161] thou [G4771] art tormented [G3600] .
16:26 And [G2532] beside [G1909] all [G3956] this [G5125] , between [G3342] us [G2257] and [G2532] you [G5216] there is [G4741] a great [G3173] gulf [G5490] fixed [G4741] : so that [G3704] they which would [G2309] pass [G1224] from hence [G1782] to [G4314] you [G5209] cannot [G3361] [G1410] ; neither [G3366] can they pass [G1276] to [G4314] us [G2248] , that [would come] from thence [G1564] .
16:27 Then [G1161] he said [G2036] , I pray [G2065] thee [G4571] therefore [G3767] , father [G3962] , that [G2443] thou wouldest send [G3992] him [G846] to [G1519] my [G3450] father's [G3962] house [G3624] :
16:28 For [G1063] I have [G2192] five [G4002] brethren [G80] ; that [G3704] he may testify [G1263] unto them [G846] , lest [G3363] they [G846] also [G2532] come [G2064] into [G1519] this [G5126] place [G5117] of torment [G931] .
16:29 Abraham [G11] saith [G3004] unto him [G846] , They have [G2192] Moses [G3475] and [G2532] the prophets [G4396] ; let them hear [G191] them [G846] .
16:30 And [G1161] he said [G2036] , Nay [G3780] , father [G3962] Abraham [G11] : but [G235] if [G1437] one [G5100] went [G4198] unto [G4314] them [G846] from [G575] the dead [G3498] , they will repent [G3340] .
16:31 And [G1161] he said [G2036] unto him [G846] , If [G1487] they hear [G191] not [G3756] Moses [G3475] and [G2532] the prophets [G4396] , neither [G3761] will they be persuaded [G3982] , though [G1437] one [G5100] rose [G450] from [G1537] the dead [G3498] .
