< Luke 16 >
1 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “There was a rich man whose steward was accused of squandering his possessions.
ⲁ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲣ̅ⲣⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲟ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲧⲟⲩⲏⲧʾ ϫⲉ ϥϫⲱⲱⲣⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥϩⲩⲡⲁⲣⲭⲟⲛⲧⲁ
2 So he called the steward in and said to him, ‘What is this I hear about yoʋ? Give an account of yoʋr stewardship, for yoʋ can no longer be steward.’
ⲃ̅ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϯⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲧⲕ̅. ⲁⲩⲡⲱⲡ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ϣϭⲟⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲓⲛⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲕⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓ.
3 The steward said to himself, ‘What should I do, now that my master is taking my stewardship away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg.
ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁⲣⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛⲁϥⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧʾ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ϣϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲉϭⲣⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲱⲃⲁϩ.
4 I know what I will do so that, when I am removed from my stewardship, people will receive me into their homes.’
ⲇ̅ⲁⲓ̈ⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁⲣⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩϣⲁⲛϥⲓⲧʾ ϩⲛⲧⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ. ⲉⲩⲉϫⲓⲧʾ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲩⲏⲓ̈.
5 So he summoned each one of his master's debtors. He said to the first, ‘How much do yoʋ owe my master?’
ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲟⲩⲛⲧⲉⲡⲉϥϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲧⲉⲡⲁϫⲟⲉⲓⲥⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ
6 The man said, ‘A hundred measures of oil.’ The steward said to him, ‘Take yoʋr bill, sit down quickly, and write fifty.’
ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϣⲉ ⲃ̅ⲃⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϩ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϫⲓⲡⲉⲕⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲅ̅ϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϭⲉⲡⲏ ⲛⲅ̅ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲟⲩ.
7 Then he said to another, ‘And how much do yoʋ owe?’ The man said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ The steward said to him, ‘Take yoʋr bill and write eighty.’
ⲍ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲣⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲩⲟ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϫⲓⲡⲉⲕⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲅ̅ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϩⲙⲉⲛⲉ.
8 So the master commended the unrighteous steward because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than are the people of the light. (aiōn )

9 And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous wealth so that when you die, those friends will receive you into eternal dwellings. (aiōnios )

10 “He who is faithful with very little is also faithful with much, and he who is dishonest with very little is also dishonest with much.

11 If then you have not been faithful with unrighteous wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?

13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.”
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲛϣϭⲟⲙ ⲗ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲣ̅ϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ. ⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ϥⲛⲁⲙⲉⲥⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲛϥ̅ⲙⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲁ. ⲏ ⲛϥ̅ⲁⲛⲉⲭⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲛϥ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲫⲣⲟⲛⲓⲟⲩⲁ. ⲙⲙⲛϣϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲙⲙⲱⲛⲁⲥ.
14 Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things and began ridiculing Jesus.

15 So he said to them, “You present yourselves as righteous in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.

16 “The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John; since then the good news of the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone tries to force their way into it.

17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter to be dropped from the law.

18 “For example, any man who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and any man who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.

19 “Now there was a certain rich man who would dress in purple and fine linen, enjoying himself each day as he lived lavishly.

20 There was also a poor man named Lazarus, who was laid at the rich man's gate, covered with sores.

21 He longed to be filled with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table, but instead the dogs would come and lick his sores.

22 Now the poor man died and was carried away by the angels to Abraham's side, and the rich man also died and was buried.

23 As he was in torment in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his side. (Hadēs )

24 So he called out and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in agony in these flames.’
