1He said also unto his disciples. There was a certain rich man, which had a steward, that was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods. 2And he called him, and said unto him: How is it, that I hear this of thee? Give accounts of thy stewardship. For thou mayest be no longer my steward. 3The steward said within himself: what shall I do? for my master will take away from me the stewardship. I cannot dig, and to beg, I am ashamed. 4I wot what to do, that when I am put out of my stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. 5Then called he all his master's debtors, and said unto the first: how much owest thou unto my master? 6And he said: an hundred tuns of oil, and he said to him: take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty. 7Then said he to another: what owest thou? And he said: an hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him: Take thy bill, and write fourscore. 8And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely. For the children of this world, are in their kind, wiser then the children of light. 9And I say also unto you: make you friends of the wicked mammon, that when ye shall have need they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

10He that is faithful in that which is least: the same is faithful in much. 11So then if ye have not been faithful in the wicked mammon? who will believe you in that which is true? 12and if ye have not been faithful in another man's business: who shall give you your own? 13No servant can serve two masters, for either he shall hate the one and love the other, or else he shall lean to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God, and mammon.

14All these things heard the pharises also which were covetous. And they mocked him, 15and he said unto them: Ye are they, which justify yourselves before men: but God knoweth your hearts. For that which men magnify, is abominable in the sight of God.

16The law, and the prophets reigned until the time of Ihon: Since that time, the kingdom of God is preached, and every man striveth to go in. 17Sooner shall heaven and earth perish, than one tittle of the law shall perish.

18Whosoever forsaketh his wife, and marrieth another, breaketh matrimony. And every man which marrieth her that is divorced from her husband committeth advoutry also.

19There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple, and fine rayons, and fared deliciously every day. 20And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, which lay at his gate full of sores 21desiring to be refreshed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's board. Nevertheless, the dogs came, and licked his sores. 22And it fortuned that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: The rich man also died, and was buried in hell. 23When he lift up his eyes, as he was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom, 24And cried and said: father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame. 25Abraham said unto him: Son remember, that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy pleasure, and contrariwise Lazarus pain. Now therefore is he comforted, and thou art punished. 26Beyond all this between you and us there is a great space set, so that they which would go from hence to you, cannot: neither from thence come hither. 27And he said: I pray thee therefore father, send him to my father's house. 28For I have five brethren: for to warn them, lest they also come into this place of torment. 29Abraham said unto him: they have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them. 30And he said: nay father Abraham, but if one from the dead came unto them they would repent. 31He said unto him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they believe, though one rose from death again.
