Luke 16

1And^G1161 he said^G3004 also^G2532 unto^G4314 the^G846 disciples^G3101, There was^G2258 a certain^G5100 rich^G4145 man^G444, who^G3739 had^G2192 a steward^G3623; and^G2532 the same^G3778 was accused^G1225 unto him^G846 that^G5613 he was wasting^G1287 his^G846 goods^G5224. 2And^G2532 he called^G5455 him^G846, and^G2532 said^G2036 unto him^G846, What is this^G5124 that I hear^G191 of^G4012 thee^G4675? render^G591 the account^G3056 of thy^G4675 stewardship^G3622; for^G1063 thou canst be^G1410 no^G3756 longer^G2089 steward^G3621. 3And^G1161 the steward^G3623 said^G2036 within^G1722 himself^G1438, What^G5101 shall I do^G4160, seeing^G3754 that my^G3450 lord^G2962 taketh away^G851 the stewardship^G3622 from^G575 me^G1700? I have^G2480 not^G2480 strength to dig^G4626; to beg^G1871 I am ashamed^G153. 4I 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. 5And^G2532 calling^G4341 to him each^G1538 one^G1520 of his^G1438 lord's^G2962 debtors^G5533, he said^G3004 to the first^G4413, How much^G4214 owest thou^G3784 unto my^G3450 lord^G2962? 6And^G1161 he said^G2036, A hundred^G1540 measures^G943 of oil^G1637. And^G2532 he said^G2036 unto him^G846, Take^G1209 thy^G4675 bond^G1121, and^G2532 sit down^G2523 quickly^G5030 and write^G1125 fifty^G4004. 7Then^G1899 said he^G2036 to another^G2087, And^G1161 how much^G4214 owest^G3784 thou^G4771? And^G1161 he said^G2036, A hundred^G1540 measures^G2884 of wheat^G4621. He^G2532 saith^G3004 unto him^G846, Take^G1209 thy^G4675 bond^G1121, and^G2532 write^G1125 fourscore^G3589. 8And^G2532 his lord^G2962 commended^G1867 the unrighteous^G93 steward^G3623 because^G3754 he had done^G4160 wisely^G5430: for^G3754 the sons^G5207 of this^G5127 world^G165 are^G1526 for^G3754 their^G1438 own generation^G1074 wiser^G5429 than^G5228 the sons^G5207 of the light^G5457. 9And I^G2504 say^G3004 unto you^G5213, Make^G4160 to yourselves^G1438 friends^G5384 by^G1537 means of the mammon^G3126 of unrighteousness^G93; that^G2443, when^G3752 it shall fail^G1587, they may receive^G1209 you^G5209 into^G1519 the eternal^G166 tabernacles^G3126. 10He that^G3588 is faithful^G4103 in^G1722 a very little^G1646 is faithful^G4103 also^G2532 in^G1722 much^G4183: and^G2532 he that^G3588 is^G2076 unrighteous^G94 in^G1722 a very little^G1646 is^G2076 unrighteous^G94 also^G2532 in^G1722 much^G4183. 11If^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? 12And^G2532 if^G1487 ye have^G1096 not^G3756 been^G1096 faithful^G4103 in^G1722 that which^G3588 is another's^G245, who^G5101 will give^G1325 you^G5213 that which^G3588 is your own^G5212? 13No^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 to^G472 one^G1520, and^G2532 despise^G2706 the other^G2087. Ye cannot^G1410 serve^G1398 God^G2316 and^G2532 mammon^G3126. 14And^G1161 the Pharisees^G5330, who^G2532 were^G5225 lovers of money^G5366, heard^G191 all^G3956 these things^G5023; and^G2532 they scoffed^G1592 at him^G846. 15And^G2532 he said^G2036 unto them^G846, Ye^G5210 are^G2075 they that^G3588 justify^G1344 yourselves^G1438 in the sight^G1799 of men^G444; but^G1161 God^G2316 knoweth^G1097 your^G5216 hearts^G2588: for^G3754 that which^G3588 is exalted^G5308 among^G1722 men^G444 is^G2076 an abomination^G946 in the sight^G1799 of God^G2316. 16The law^G3551 and^G2532 the prophets^G4396 were until^G2193 John^G2491: from^G575 that time^G5119 the gospel of the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 is preached^G2097, and^G2532 every man^G3956 entereth violently^G971 into^G1519 it^G846. 17But^G1161 it is^G2076 easier^G2123 for heaven^G3772 and^G2532 earth^G1093 to pass^G3928 away, than^G2228 for one^G1520 tittle^G2762 of the law^G3551 to fall^G4098. 18Every one^G3956 that putteth away^G630 his^G846 wife^G1135, and^G2532 marrieth^G1060 another^G2087, committeth adultery^G3431: and^G2532 he that^G3956 marrieth one^G1060 that^G3588 is put away^G630 from^G575 a husband^G435 committeth adultery^G3431. 19Now there was^G2258 a certain^G5100 rich^G4145 man^G444, and^G2532 he was clothed^G1737 in purple^G4209 and^G2532 fine linen^G1040, faring^G2165 sumptuously^G2988 every^G2596 day^G2250: 20and^G1161 a certain^G5100 beggar^G4434 named^G3686 Lazarus^G2976 was^G3739 laid^G906 at^G4314 his^G846 gate^G4440, full of sores^G1669, 21and^G2532 desiring^G1937 to be fed^G5526 with^G575 the crumbs^G5589 that^G3588 fell^G4098 from^G575 the rich man's^G4145 table^G5132; yea^G235, even^G2532 the dogs^G2965 came^G2064 and licked^G621 his^G846 sores^G1668. 22And^G1161 it came to pass^G1096, that the beggar^G4434 died^G599, and^G2532 that he^G846 was carried^G667 away by^G5259 the angels^G32 into^G1519 Abraham's^G11 bosom^G1161: and the rich man^G4145 also^G2532 died^G599, and^G2532 was buried^G2290. 23And^G2532 in^G1722 Hades^G86 he lifted 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. 24And^G2532 he^G846 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 in anguish^G3600 in^G1722 this^G3778 flame^G5395. 25But^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 Lazarus^G2976 in like^G3668 manner evil things^G2556: but^G1161 now^G3568 here he^G3592 is comforted^G3870, and^G1161 thou^G4771 art in anguish^G3600. 26And^G2532 besides^G1909 all^G3956 this^G5125, between^G3342 us^G2257 and^G2532 you^G5216 there is a great^G3173 gulf^G5490 fixed^G4741, that^G3704 they that^G3704 would^G2309 pass^G1224 from hence^G1782 to^G4314 you^G5209 may not^G3361 be able, and^G3366 that^G3588 none may cross over^G1276 from thence^G1564 to^G4314 us^G2248. 27And^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; 28for^G1063 I have^G2192 five^G4002 brethren^G80; that^G3704 he may testify^G1263 unto them^G846, lest^G2443 they^G846 also^G2532 come^G2064 into^G1519 this^G5126 place^G5117 of torment^G931. 29But Abraham^G11 saith^G3004, They have^G2192 Moses^G3475 and^G2532 the prophets^G4396; let them hear^G191 them^G846. 30And^G1161 he said^G2036, Nay^G3780, father^G3962 Abraham^G11: but^G235 if^G1437 one^G5100 go^G4198 to^G4314 them^G846 from^G575 the dead^G3498, they will repent^G3340. 31And^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, if^G1437 one^G5100 rise^G450 from^G1537 the dead^G3498.
