richº
man,º
whichº
hadºº
a steward;º
andº
the sameº
was accusedºº
unto himº
thatº
he had wastedºº
hisºº
goods.ºº |
 16:2
And he called him, and said unto him, What is this that I hear of thee? render the account of thy stewardship; for thou canst be no longer steward. |
 16:2
Andº
he calledºº
him,º
and saidºº
unto him,º
Howº
is it that I hearºº
thisº
ofº
thee?º
giveºº
an accountº
of thyº
stewardship;º
forº
thou mayestº
beºº
noº
longerº
steward.ºººº |
 16:3
And the steward said within himself, What shall I do, seeing that my lord taketh away the stewardship from me? I have not strength to dig; to beg I am ashamed. |
 16:3
Thenº
theº
stewardº
saidºº
withinº
himself,º
Whatº
shall I do?ºº
forº
myº
lordº
taketh awayºº
fromº
meº
theº
stewardship:º
I cannotººº
dig;ºº
to begºº
I am ashamed.ºº |
 16:4
I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. |
 16:4
I am resolvedºº
whatº
to do,ºº
that,º
whenº
I am put outºº

houses.º |
 16:5
And calling to him each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much owest thou unto my lord? |
 16:5
Soº
he calledºº
everyº
oneº
of hisº
lord'sº
debtorsº
[unto him], and saidºº
unto theº
first,º
How muchº
owestº
thouºº
unto myº
lord?º |
 16:6
And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bond, and sit down quickly and write fifty. |

Andº
heº
said,ºº

Andº
he saidºº
unto him,º

 16:8
And his lord commended the unrighteous steward because he had done wisely: for the sons of this world are for their own generation wiser than the sons of the light. |
 16:8
Andº
theº
lordº
commendedºº
theº
unjustº
steward,º
becauseº
he had doneºº
wisely:º
forº
theº
childrenº
of thisº
worldº
areºº
inº

generationº
wiserº
thanº

of light.º |
 16:9
And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when it shall fail, they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles. |

unto you,º
Makeºº
to yourselvesº
friendsº
ofº
theº
mammonº

that,º
whenº
ye fail,ºº
they may receiveºº
youº
intoº
everlastingº
habitations.º |
 16:10
He that is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much: and he that is unrighteous in a very little is unrighteous also in much. |
 16:10
He that is faithfulº
inº
that which is leastº
isºº
faithfulº
alsoº
inº
much:º
andº
he that is unjustº
inº
the leastº
isºº
unjustº
alsoº
inº
much.º |
 16:11
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true [riches]? |
 16:11

faithfulº
inº
theº
unrighteousº
mammon,º
whoº
will commitºº

trustººº
theº
trueº
[riches]? |
 16:12
And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own? |
 16:12
Andº
ifº
ye haveºº
notº
beenºº
faithfulº
inº
that which is another man's,º
whoº
shall giveºº
youº
that which is your own?º |
 16:13 ¶
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. |
 16:13 ¶
Noº
servantº

 16:15
Andº
he saidºº
unto them,º
Yeº
areºº
they which justifyºº
yourselvesº
beforeº
men;º
butº
Godº
knowethºº
yourº
hearts:º
forº
that which is highly esteemedº
amongº
menº
isºº
abominationº
in the sightº
of God.º |

But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fall. |
 16:17
Andº
it isºº
easierº
for heavenº

to fail.ºº |
 16:18
Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth one that is put away from a husband committeth adultery. |
 16:18
