16:3	Then the stewarde saide within himselfe, What shall I doe? for my master taketh away from me the stewardship. I cannot digge, and to begge I am ashamed.
16:4	I knowe what I will doe, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue mee into their houses.
16:5	Then called he vnto him euery one of his masters detters, and said vnto the first, Howe much owest thou vnto my master?

16:9	And I say vnto you, Make you friends with the riches of iniquitie, that when ye shall want, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations.
16:10	He that is faithfull in the least, hee is also faithful in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much.
16:11	If then ye haue not ben faithful in the wicked riches, who wil trust you in the true treasure?
16:12	And if ye haue not bene faithfull in another mans goods, who shall giue you that which is yours?
16:13	No seruaunt can serue two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and loue the other: or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other. Yee can not serue God and riches.
16:14	All these thinges heard the Pharises also which were couetous, and they scoffed at him.
16:15	Then he sayde vnto them, Yee are they, which iustifie your selues before men: but God knoweth your heartes: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of God.
16:16	The Lawe and the Prophets endured vntill Iohn: and since that time the kingdome of God is preached, and euery man preasseth into it.

16:19	There was a certaine riche man, which was clothed in purple and fine linnen, and fared well and delicately euery day.
16:20	Also there was a certaine begger named Lazarus, which was laide at his gate full of sores,
16:21	And desired to bee refreshed with the crommes that fell from the riche mans table: yea, and the dogges came and licked his sores.
16:22	And it was so that the begger died, and was caried by the Angels into Abrahams bosome. The rich man also died, and was buried.
16:23	And being in hell in torments, he lift vp his eyes, and sawe Abraham a farre off, and Lazarus in his bosome.
16:24	Then he cried, and saide, Father Abraham, haue mercie on mee, and sende Lazarus that hee may dippe the tip of his finger in water, and coole my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
16:25	But Abraham saide, Sonne, remember that thou in thy life time receiuedst thy pleasures, and likewise Lazarus paines: now therefore is he comforted, and thou art tormented.
16:26	Besides all this, betweene you and vs there is a great gulfe set, so that they which would goe from hence to you, can not: neither can they come from thence to vs.
16:27	Then he said, I pray thee therfore, father, that thou wouldest sende him to my fathers house,
16:28	(For I haue fiue brethren) that he may testifie vnto them, least they also come into this place of torment.
16:29	Abraham said vnto him, They haue Moses and the Prophets: let them heare them.
16:30	And he sayde, Nay, father Abraham: but if one came vnto them from the dead, they will amend their liues.
16:31	Then he saide vnto him, If they heare not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rise from the dead againe.


16:1	He also said to His disciples: "There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods."
16:2	So he called him and said to him, 'What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, because you can no longer be steward.'"
16:3	"Then the steward said within himself, 'What shall I do? Because, my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg."
16:4	I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.'"
16:5	"So he called every one of his master's debtors to him, and said to the first, 'How much do you owe my master?'"
16:6	And he said, 'A hundred measures of oil.' So he said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'"
16:7	Then he said to another, 'And how much do you owe?' So he said, 'A hundred measures of wheat.' And he said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'"
16:8	So the master commended the unjust steward because he had dealt shrewdly. Because, the sons of this world are more shrewd in their generation than the children of light."
16:9	"And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home."
16:10	He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much."
16:11	Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?"
16:12	And if you have not been faithful in what is another man's, who will give you what is your own?"
16:13	"No servant can serve two masters; because, either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."
16:14	Now the Pharisees, who were covetous, also heard all these things, and they derided Him.
16:15	And He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. Because, what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God."
16:16	"The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it."
16:17	And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle of the law to fail."
16:18	"Whoever puts away his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is put away from her husband commits adultery."
16:19	"There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and lived lavishly every day."
16:20	But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate,"
16:21	and desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores."
16:22	So it happened that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried."
16:23	And being in torments in Hell, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."
16:24	"Then he cried out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; because I am tormented in this flame.'"
16:25	But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented."
16:26	And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those who want to come from there pass to us.'"
16:27	"Then he said, 'I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house,"
16:28	because, I have five brethren, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.'"
16:29	Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.'"
16:30	And he said, 'No, father Abraham; but if one went to them from the dead, they will repent.'"
16:31	But he said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.'"
