1 And he also said to his disciples: “A certain man was wealthy, and he had a steward of his estate. And this man was accused to him of having dissipated his goods. 2 And he called him and said to him: ‘What is this that I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship. For you can no longer be my steward.’ 3 And the steward said within himself: ‘What shall I do? For my lord is taking the stewardship away from me. I am not strong enough to dig. I am too ashamed to beg. 4 I know what I will do so that, when I have been removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.’ 5 And so, calling together each one of his lord’s debtors, he said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my lord?’ 6 So he said, ‘One hundred jars of oil.’ And he said to him, ‘Take your invoice, and quickly, sit down and write fifty.’ 7 Next, he said to another, ‘In truth, how much do you owe?’ And he said, ‘One hundred measures of wheat.’ He said to him, ‘Take your record books, and write eighty.’ 8 And the lord praised the iniquitous steward, in that he had acted prudently. For the sons of this age are more prudent with their generation than are the sons of light. 9 And so I say to you, make friends for yourself using iniquitous mammon, so that, when you will have passed away, they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles. 10 Whoever is faithful in what is least, is also faithful in what is greater. And whoever is unjust in what is small, is also unjust in what is greater. 11 So then, if you have not been faithful with iniquitous mammon, who will trust you with what is true? 12 And if you have not been faithful with what belongs to another, who will give you what is yours? 13 No servant is able to serve two lords. For either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will cling to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.” 14 But the Pharisees, who were greedy, were listening to all these things. And they ridiculed him. 15 And he said to them: “You are the ones who justify yourselves in the sight of men. But God knows your hearts. For what is lifted up by men is an abomination in the sight of God. 16 The law and the prophets were until John. Since then, the kingdom of God is being evangelized, and everyone acts with violence toward it. 17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one dot of the law to fall away. 18 Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery. And whoever marries her who has been divorced by her husband commits adultery. 19 A certain man was wealthy, and he was clothed in purple and in fine linen. And he feasted splendidly every day. 20 And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who lay at his gate, covered with sores, 21 wanting to be filled with the crumbs which were falling from the wealthy man’s table. But no one gave it to him. And even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 Then it happened that the beggar died, and he was carried by the Angels into the bosom of Abraham. Now the wealthy man also died, and he was entombed in Hell. 23 Then lifting up his eyes, while he was in torments, he saw Abraham far away, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 And crying out, he said: ‘Father Abraham, take pity on me and send Lazarus, so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water to refresh my tongue. For I am tortured in this fire.’ 25 And Abraham said to him: ‘Son, recall that you received good things in your life, and in comparison, Lazarus received bad things. But now he is consoled, and truly you are tormented. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chaos has been established, so that those who might want to cross from here to you are not able, nor can someone cross from there to here.’ 27 And he said: ‘Then, father, I beg you to send him to my father’s house, for I have five brothers, 28 so that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torments.’ 29 And Abraham said to him: ‘They have Moses and the prophets. Let them listen to them.’ 30 So he said: ‘No, father Abraham. But if someone were to go to them from the dead, they would repent.’ 31 But he said to him: ‘If they will not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they believe even if someone has resurrected from the dead.’ ” |
