1 And he said also to the disciples, There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and the same was accused to him as wasting his goods.

2 And he called him, and said to him, What is this that I hear of thee? Give an account of thy stewardship; for thou canst be no longer steward.

3 Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do, now that my lord taketh away from me the stewardship? I cannot dig, I am ashamed to beg.

8 And the lord commended the unjust steward for having done wisely; for the sons of this world are wiser toward their generation than the sons of light. (aiōn g165)

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