^ Lu 16.2: And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
^ Lu 16.3: Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
^ Lu 16.4: I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
^ Lu 16.5: So he called every one of his lord's debtors [unto him], and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

^ Lu 16.13: No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

^ Lu 16.25: But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
^ Lu 16.26: And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that [would come] from thence.
