Luke 16:7-15

⁷Then he said to another, And thou, how much dost thou owe? And he said, A hundred cors of wheat. And he says to him, Take thy writing and write eighty.

⁸And the lord praised the unrighteous steward because he had done prudently. For the sons of this world are, for their own generation, more prudent than the sons of light.

⁹And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends with the mammon of unrighteousness, that when it fails ye may be received into the eternal tabernacles.

¹⁰He that is faithful in the least is faithful also in much; and he that is unrighteous in the least is unrighteous also in much.

¹¹If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who shall entrust to you the true?

¹²and if ye have not been faithful in that which is another's, who shall give to you your own?

¹³No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and will love the other, or he will cleave to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

¹⁴And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things, and mocked him.

¹⁵And he said to them, Ye are they who justify themselves before men, but God knows your hearts; for what amongst men is highly thought of is an abomination before God.
