The Parable of the Dishonest Manager
1
He also said to the disciples, "There was a rich man who had 1a manager, and charges were brought to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
2
And he called him and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Turn in the account of your 2management, for you can no longer be manager.'
3
And the manager said to himself, 'What shall I do, since my master is taking the management away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg.
4
I have decided what to do, so that when I am removed from management, people may receive me into their houses.'
5
So, summoning his master's debtors one by one, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe my master?'
6
He said, 'A hundred measuresa of oil.' 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?' He said, 'A hundred measuresb of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'
8
The master commended the dishonest manager for his 3shrewdness. For 4the sons of this worldc are 5more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than 6the sons of light.
9
And I tell you, 7make friends for yourselves by means of 8unrighteous wealth,d so that when it fails they may receive you into the eternal dwellings.
10
9"One who is 10faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
11
If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches?
