Luke 16:1-8

CAB(i) 1 He also said to His disciples: "There was a certain rich man who had a manager, and this man was accused to him as wasting his possessions. 2 And calling him, he said to him, 'What is this I hear about you? Render an account of your management, for you can no longer be manager.' 3 "Then the manager said within himself, 'What shall I do? For my master is taking the management away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg. 4 I know what I will do, so that whenever I am removed from the management, they will receive me into their houses.' 5 And having summoned each one of his master's debtors to him, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe my master?' 6 And he said, 'A hundred baths of olive oil.' So he said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.' 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.' 8 So the master praised the unrighteous manager because he had dealt shrewdly. For the sons of this age are shrewder in their own generation than the sons of light.
