1 G1161 He G2532 also G3004 said G4314 to G846 his G3101 disciples, G2258 "There was G5100 a certain G4145 rich G444 man G3739 who G2192 had G3623 a manager. G2532 An G1225 accusation G846 was made to him G5613 that G3778 this man G1287 was wasting G846 his G5224 possessions.

2 G2532 He G5455 called G846 him, G2532 and G2036 said G846 to him, G5124 ‘What is this G191 that I hear G4012 about G4675 you? G591 Give G3056 an accounting G4675 of your G3622 management, G1063 for G3756 you can no G2089 longer G1410 be G3621 manager.'

3 G1161 "The G3623 manager G2036 said G1722 within G1438 himself, G5101 ‘What G4160 will I do, G3754 seeing G3450 that my G2962 lord G851 is taking away G3622 the management G575 position from G1700 me? G2480 I G3756 don't G4626 have strength to dig. G153 I am ashamed G1871 to beg.

4 G1097 I know G5101 what G4160 I will do, G2443 so that G3752 when G3179 I am removed G3622 from management, G1209 they may receive G3165 me G1519 into G846 their G3624 houses.'

5 G2532 G4341 Calling G1538 each G1520 one G1438 of his G2962 lord's G5533 debtors G3004 to him, he said G4413 to the first, G4214 ‘How much G3784 do you G3450 owe to my G2962 lord?'

6 G1161 He G2036 said, G1540 ‘A hundred G943 batos G1637 of oil.' G2532 He G2036 said G846 to him, G1209 ‘Take G4675 your G1121 bill, G2532 and G2523 sit down G5030 quickly G1125 and write G4004 fifty.'

7 G1899 Then G2036 he G2087 said to another, G1161 ‘How G4214 much G4771 do you G3784 owe?' G1161 He G2036 said, G1540 ‘A hundred G2884 cors G4621 of wheat.' G2532 He G3004 said G846 to him, G1209 ‘Take G4675 your G1121 bill, G2532 and G1125 write G3589 eighty.'

8 G2532 "His G2962 lord G1867 commended G93 the dishonest G3623 manager G3754 because G4160 he had done G5430 wisely, G3754 for G5207 the children G5127 of this G165 world G1526 are, G1519 in G1438 their G1074 own generation, G5429 wiser G5228 than G5207 the children G5457 of the light.

9 G2504 I G3004 tell G5213 you, G4160 make G1438 for yourselves G5384 friends G1537 by G3126 means of unrighteous mammon, G2443 so that G3752 when G5209 you G1587 fail, G1209 they may receive G5209 you G1519 into G166 the eternal G3126 tents.

10 G3588 He who G4103 is faithful G1722 in G1646 a very little G4103 is faithful G2532 also G1722 in G4183 much. G2532 He G3588 who G2076 is G94 dishonest G1722 in G1646 a very little G2076 is G2532 also G94 dishonest G1722 in G4183 much.

11 G1487 If G3767 therefore G1096 you have G3756 not G1096 been G4103 faithful G1722 in G94 the unrighteous G3126 mammon, G5101 who G4100 will commit G5213 to your G4100 trust G228 the true riches?

12 G2532 G1487 If G1096 you have G3756 not G1096 been G4103 faithful G1722 in G3588 that which G245 is another's, G5101 who G1325 will give G5213 you G3588 that which G5212 is your own?

13 G3762 No G3610 servant G1410 can G1398 serve G1417 two G2962 masters, G1063 for G2228 either G3404 he will hate G1520 the one, G2532 and G25 love G2087 the other; G2228 or else G472 he will hold to G1520 one, G2532 and G2706 despise G2087 the other. G1410 You aren't G3756 G1398 able to serve G2316 God G2532 and G3126 mammon."

14 G1161 The G5330 Pharisees, G5225 who were G5366 lovers of money, G2532 also G191 heard G3956 all G5023 these things, G2532 and G1592 they scoffed G846 at him.

15 G2532 He G2036 said G846 to them, G5210 "You G2075 are G3588 those who G1344 justify G1438 yourselves G1799 in the sight G444 of men, G1161 but G2316 God G1097 knows G5216 your G2588 hearts. G3754 For G3588 that which G5308 is exalted G1722 among G444 men G2076 is G946 an abomination G1799 in the sight G2316 of God.

16 G3551 The law G2532 and G4396 the prophets G2193 were until G2491 John. G575 From G5119 that time G932 the Good News of the Kingdom G2316 of God G2097 is preached, G2532 and G3956 everyone G971 is forcing G1519 his way into G846 it.

17 G1161 But G2076 it is G2123 easier G3772 for heaven G2532 and G1093 earth G3928 to pass G2228 away, than G1520 for one G2762 tiny stroke G3551 of a pen in the law G4098 to fall.

18 G3956 Everyone G630 who divorces G846 his G1135 wife, G2532 and G1060 marries G2087 another, G3431 commits adultery. G2532 He G3956 who G1060 marries one G3588 who G630 is divorced G575 from G435 a husband G3431 commits adultery.

19 G2258 "Now there was G5100 a certain G4145 rich G444 man, G2532 and G1737 he was clothed G4209 in purple G2532 and G1040 fine linen, G2165 living G2988 in luxury G2596 every G2250 day.

20 G1161 A G2258 G5100 certain G4434 beggar, G3686 named G2976 Lazarus, G3739 was G906 laid G4314 at G846 his G4440 gate, G1669 full of sores,

21 G2532 and G1937 desiring G5526 to be fed G575 with G5589 the crumbs G3588 that G4098 fell G575 from G4145 the rich man's G5132 table. G235 Yes, G2532 even G2965 the dogs G2064 came G621 and licked G846 his G1668 sores.

22 G1161 It G1096 happened G4434 that the beggar G599 died, G1161 and G846 that he G667 was carried G5259 away by G32 the angels G1519 to G11 Abraham's G1161 bosom. G4145 The rich man G2532 also G599 died, G2532 and G2290 was buried.

23 G2532 G1722 In G86 Hades, G1869 he lifted up G846 his G3788 eyes, G5225 being G1722 in G931 torment, G3708 and saw G11 Abraham G3113 far G575 off, G2532 and G2976 Lazarus G1722 at G846 his G2859 bosom.

24 G2532 G846 He G5455 cried G2036 and said, G3962 ‘Father G11 Abraham, G1653 have mercy G3165 on me, G2532 and G3992 send G2976 Lazarus, G2443 that G911 he may dip G206 the tip G846 of his G1147 finger G5204 in water, G2532 and G2711 cool G3450 my G1100 tongue! G3754 For G3600 I am in anguish G1722 in G3778 this G5395 flame.'

25 G1161 "But G11 Abraham G2036 said, G5043 ‘Son, G3415 remember G3754 that G4771 you, G1722 in G4675 your G2222 lifetime, G618 received G4675 your G18 good things, G2532 and G2976 Lazarus, G3668 in the same G2556 way, bad things. G1161 But G3568 now G3592 here he G3870 is comforted G1161 and G4771 you G3600 are in anguish.

26 G2532 G1909 Besides G3956 all G5125 this, G3342 between G2257 us G2532 and G5216 you G3173 there is a great G5490 gulf G4741 fixed, G3704 that G3588 those who G4314 want to G1224 pass G1782 from here G4314 to G5209 you G3361 are not G3366 able, and G3588 that G1276 none may cross over G1564 from there G4314 to G2248 us.'

27 G1161 "He G2036 said, G2065 ‘I ask G4571 you G3767 therefore, G3962 father, G2443 that G3992 you would send G846 him G1519 to G3450 my G3962 father's G3624 house;

28 G1063 for G2192 I have G4002 five G80 brothers, G3704 that G1263 he may testify G846 to them, G2443 so G846 they G3361 won't G2532 also G2064 come G1519 into G5126 this G5117 place G931 of torment.'

29 G11 "But Abraham G3004 said G846 to him, G2192 ‘They have G3475 Moses G2532 and G4396 the prophets. G191 Let them listen G846 to them.'

30 G1161 "He G2036 said, G3780 ‘No, G3962 father G11 Abraham, G235 but G1437 if G5100 one G4198 goes G4314 to G846 them G575 from G3498 the dead, G3340 they will repent.'

31 G1161 "He G2036 said G846 to him, G1487 ‘If G3756 they don't G191 listen G3475 to Moses G2532 and G4396 the prophets, G3761 neither G3982 will they be persuaded G1437 if G5100 one G450 rises G1537 from G3498 the dead.'"
