- 2
- And he called him, and said to him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship: for thou mayest be no longer steward.
- 3
- Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg.

- And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
- 10
- He that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in much; and he that is unjust in the least, is unjust also in much.
- 11
- If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
- 12
- And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who will give you that which is your own?
- 13

- 22
- And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by angels into Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried:
- 23
