1. And he said also unto the disciples, There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he was wasting his goods.
|
1. And G1161 he said G3004 also G2532 unto G4314 his G846 disciples G3101 , There was G2258 a certain G5100 rich G4145 man G444 , which G3739 had G2192 a steward G3623 ; and G2532 the same G3778 was accused G1225 unto him G846 that G5613 he had wasted G1287 his G848 goods G5224 .
|
|
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.
|
2. And G2532 he called G5455 him G846 , and said G2036 unto him G846 , How G5101 is it that I hear G191 this G5124 of G4012 thee G4675 ? give G591 an account G3056 of thy G4675 stewardship G3622 ; for G1063 thou mayest G1410 be no longer steward G3621 G3756 G2089 .
|
|
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.
|
3. Then G1161 the G3588 steward G3623 said G2036 within G1722 himself G1438 , What G5101 shall I do G4160 ? for G3754 my G3450 lord G2962 taketh away G851 from G575 me G1700 the G3588 stewardship G3622 : I cannot G2480 G3756 dig G4626 ; to beg G1871 I am ashamed G153 .
|
|
4. I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
|
4. I am resolved G1097 what G5101 to do G4160 , that G2443 , when G3752 I am put out G3179 of the G3588 stewardship G3622 , they may receive G1209 me G3165 into G1519 their G848 houses G3624 .
|
|
5. And calling to him each one of his lords debtors, he said to the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
|
5. So G2532 he called G4341 every G1538 one G1520 of his G1438 lord G2962 's debtors G5533 unto him, and said G3004 unto the G3588 first G4413 , how much G4214 owest G3784 thou unto my G3450 lord G2962 ?
|
|
6. And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bond, and sit down quickly and write fifty.
|
6. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 , A hundred G1540 measures G943 of oil G1637 . And G2532 he said G2036 unto him G846 , Take G1209 thy G4675 bill G1121 , and G2532 sit down G2523 quickly G5030 , and write G1125 fifty G4004 .
|
|
7. Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. He saith unto him, Take thy bond, and write fourscore.
|
7. Then G1899 said G2036 he to another G2087 , And G1161 how much G4214 owest G3784 thou G4771 ? And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 , A hundred G1540 measures G2884 of wheat G4621 . And G2532 he said G3004 unto him G846 , Take G1209 thy G4675 bill G1121 , and G2532 write G1125 fourscore G3589 .
|
|
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.
|
8. And G2532 the G3588 lord G2962 commended G1867 the G3588 unjust G93 steward G3623 , because G3754 he had done G4160 wisely G5430 : for G3754 the G3588 children G5207 of this G5127 world G165 are G1526 in G1519 their G1438 generation G1074 wiser G5429 than G5228 the G3588 children G5207 of light G5457 .
|
|
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.
|
9. And I G2504 say G3004 unto you G5213 , Make G4160 to yourselves G1438 friends G5384 of G1537 the G3588 mammon G3126 of unrighteousness G93 ; that G2443 , when G3752 ye fail G1587 , they may receive G1209 you G5209 into G1519 everlasting G166 habitations G4633 .
|
|
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.
|
10. He that is faithful G4103 in G1722 that which is least G1646 is G2076 faithful G4103 also G2532 in G1722 much G4183 : and G2532 he that is unjust G94 in G1722 the least G1646 is G2076 unjust G94 also G2532 in G1722 much G4183 .
|
|
11. If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
|
11. If G1487 therefore G3767 ye have not G3756 been G1096 faithful G4103 in G1722 the G3588 unrighteous G94 mammon G3126 , who G5101 will commit to your trust G4100 G5213 the G3588 true G228 riches ?
|
|
12. And if ye have not been faithful in that which is anothers, who will give you that which is your own?
|
12. And G2532 if G1487 ye have not G3756 been G1096 faithful G4103 in G1722 that which is another man G245 's, who G5101 shall give G1325 you G5213 that which is your own G5212 ?
|
|
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.
|
13. No G3762 servant G3610 can G1410 serve G1398 two G1417 masters G2962 : for G1063 either G2228 he will hate G3404 the G3588 one G1520 , and G2532 love G25 the G3588 other G2087 ; or else G2228 he will hold to G472 the one G1520 , and G2532 despise G2706 the G3588 other G2087 . Ye cannot G1410 G3756 serve G1398 God G2316 and G2532 mammon G3126 .
|
|
14. And the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things; and they scoffed at him.
|
14. And G1161 the G3588 Pharisees G5330 also G2532 , who were G5225 covetous G5366 , heard G191 all G3956 these things G5023 : and G2532 they derided G1592 him G846 .
|
|
15. And he said unto them, Ye are they that justify yourselves in the sight of men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God.
|
15. And G2532 he said G2036 unto them G846 , Ye G5210 are G2075 they which justify G1344 yourselves G1438 before G1799 men G444 ; but G1161 God G2316 knoweth G1097 your G5216 hearts G2588 : for G3754 that which is highly esteemed G5308 among G1722 men G444 is G2076 abomination G946 in the sight G1799 of God G2316 .
|
|
16. The law and the prophets were until John: from that time the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached, and every man entereth violently into it.
|
16. The G3588 law G3551 and G2532 the G3588 prophets G4396 were until G2193 John G2491 : since G575 that time G5119 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 is preached G2097 , and G2532 every man G3956 presseth G971 into G1519 it G846 .
|
|
17. But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fall.
|
17. And G1161 it is G2076 easier G2123 for heaven G3772 and G2532 earth G1093 to pass G3928 , than G2228 one G3391 tittle G2762 of the G3588 law G3551 to fail G4098 .
|
|
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.
|
18. Whosoever G3956 putteth away G630 his G848 wife G1135 , and G2532 marrieth G1060 another G2087 , committeth adultery G3431 : and G2532 whosoever G3956 marrieth G1060 her that is put away G630 from G575 her husband G435 committeth adultery G3431 .
|
|
19. Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously every day:
|
19. There G1161 was G2258 a certain G5100 rich G4145 man G444 , which G2532 was clothed G1737 in purple G4209 and G2532 fine linen G1040 , and fared G2165 sumptuously G2988 every day G2596 G2250 :
|
|
20. and a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores,
|
20. And G1161 there was G2258 a certain G5100 beggar G4434 named G3686 Lazarus G2976 , which G3739 was laid G906 at G4314 his G846 gate G4440 , full of sores G1669 ,
|
|
21. and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich mans table; yea, even the dogs come and licked his sores.
|
21. And G2532 desiring G1937 to be fed G5526 with G575 the G3588 crumbs G5589 which fell G4098 from G575 the G3588 rich man G4145 's table G5132 : moreover G235 G2532 the G3588 dogs G2965 came G2064 and licked G621 his G846 sores G1668 .
|
|
22. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels into Abrahams bosom: and the rich man also died, and was buried.
|
22. And G1161 it came to pass G1096 , that the G3588 beggar G4434 died G599 , and G2532 was G846 carried G667 by G5259 the G3588 angels G32 into G1519 Abraham G11 's bosom G2859 G1161 : the G3588 rich man G4145 also G2532 died G599 , and G2532 was buried G2290 ;
|
|
23. And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
|
23. And G2532 in G1722 hell G86 he lifted up G1869 his G848 eyes G3788 , being G5225 in G1722 torments G931 , and seeth G3708 Abraham G11 afar off G575 G3113 , and G2532 Lazarus G2976 in G1722 his G846 bosom G2859 .
|
|
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 in anguish in this flame.
|
24. And 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 G3588 tip G206 of his G848 finger G1147 in water G5204 , and G2532 cool G2711 my G3450 tongue G1100 ; for G3754 I am tormented G3600 in G1722 this G5026 flame G5395 .
|
|
25. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things: but now here he is comforted and thou art in anguish.
|
25. But 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 likewise G3668 Lazarus G2976 evil things G2556 : but G1161 now G3568 he G3592 is comforted G3870 , and G1161 thou G4771 art tormented G3600 .
|
|
26. And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that they that would pass from hence to you may not be able, and that none may cross over from thence to us.
|
26. And G2532 beside G1909 all G3956 this G5125 , between G3342 us G2257 and G2532 you G5216 there is a great G3173 gulf G5490 fixed G4741 : so that G3704 they which would G2309 pass G1224 from hence G1782 to G4314 you G5209 cannot G1410 G3361 ; neither G3366 can they pass G1276 to G4314 us G2248 , that would come from thence G1564 .
|
|
27. And he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my fathers house;
|
27. Then 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 G3962 's house G3624 :
|
|
28. for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
|
28. For G1063 I have G2192 five G4002 brethren G80 ; that G3704 he may testify G1263 unto them G846 , lest G3363 they G846 also G2532 come G2064 into G1519 this G5126 place G5117 of torment G931 .
|
|
29. But Abraham saith, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
|
29. Abraham G11 saith G3004 unto him G846 , They have G2192 Moses G3475 and G2532 the G3588 prophets G4396 ; let them hear G191 them G846 .
|
|
30. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one go to them from the dead, they will repent.
|
30. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 , Nay G3780 , father G3962 Abraham G11 : but G235 if G1437 one G5100 went G4198 unto G4314 them G846 from G575 the dead G3498 , they will repent G3340 .
|
|
31. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, if one rise from the dead.
|
31. And G1161 he said G2036 unto him G846 , If they hear G191 not G3756 Moses G3475 and G2532 the G3588 prophets G4396 , neither G3756 will they be persuaded G3982 , though G3761 G1437 one G5100 rose G450 from G1537 the dead G3498 .
