  Luke   chapter 16

   1 And he said also unto his disciples, There was a
  certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same
  was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
   2 And he called him, and said unto him, How is it
  that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy
  stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
   3 Then the steward said within himself, What shall I
  do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship:
  I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
   4 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out
  of the stewardship, they may receive me into their
  houses.
   5 So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto
  him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou
  unto my lord?
   6 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he
  said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly,
  and write fifty.
   7 Then said he to another, And how much owest thou?
  And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he
  said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.
   8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, because
  he had done wisely: for the children of this world
  are in their generation wiser than the children of
  light.
   9 And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of
  the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail,
  they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
  10 He that is faithful in that which is least is
  faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the
  least is unjust also in much.
  11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the
  unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the
  true riches?
  12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is
  another man's, who shall give you that which is your
  own?
  13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he
  will hate the one, and love the other; or else he
  will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye
  cannot serve God and mammon.
  14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard
  all these things: and they derided him.
  15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify
  yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts:
  for that which is highly esteemed among men is
  abomination in the sight of God.
  16 The law and the prophets were until John: since
  that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every
  man presseth into it.
  17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass,
  than one tittle of the law to fail.
  18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth
  another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth
  her that is put away from her husband committeth
  adultery.
  19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in
  purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every
  day:
  20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus,
  which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
  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.
  22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was
  carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich
  man also died, and was buried;
  23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in
  torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in
  his bosom.
  24 And he cried 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; for I am
  tormented in this flame.
  25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy
  lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise
  Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and
  thou art tormented.
  26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a
  great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from
  hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us,
  that would come from thence.
  27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that
  thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
  28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto
  them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
  29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the
  prophets; let them hear them.
  30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went
  unto them from the dead, they will repent.
  31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and
  the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though
  one rose from the dead.
