Luke - Chapter: 16


16:1	And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
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.
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.
16:4	I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
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?
16:6	And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
16:7	Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.
16:8	And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.
16:9	And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
16:10	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.
16:11	If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
16:12	And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?
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.
16:14	And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
16:15	And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
16:16	The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
16:17	And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
16:18	Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.
16:19	There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
16:20	And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
16:21	And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
16:22	And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
16:23	And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
16:24	And he 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.
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.
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.
16:27	Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
16:28	For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
16:29	Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
16:30	And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
16:31	And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.


16:1	And he sayde also vnto his disciples, There was a certaine riche man, which had a stewarde, and he was accused vnto him, that he wasted his goods.
16:2	And hee called him, and saide vnto him, Howe is it that I heare this of thee? Giue an accounts of thy stewardship: for thou maiest be no longer steward.
16:3	Then the stewarde saide within himselfe, What shall I doe? for my master taketh away from me the stewardship. I cannot digge, and to begge I am ashamed.
16:4	I knowe what I will doe, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue mee into their houses.
16:5	Then called he vnto him euery one of his masters detters, and said vnto the first, Howe much owest thou vnto my master?
16:6	And he said, An hudreth measures of oyle. And he saide to him, Take thy writing, and sitte downe quickely, and write fiftie.
16:7	Then said he to another, How much owest thou? And hee sayde, An hundreth measures of wheate. Then he saide to him, Take thy writing, and write foure score.
16:8	And the Lord commended the vniust stewarde, because he had done wisely. Wherefore the children of this worlde are in their generation wiser then the children of light.
16:9	And I say vnto you, Make you friends with the riches of iniquitie, that when ye shall want, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations.
16:10	He that is faithfull in the least, hee is also faithful in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much.
16:11	If then ye haue not ben faithful in the wicked riches, who wil trust you in the true treasure?
16:12	And if ye haue not bene faithfull in another mans goods, who shall giue you that which is yours?
16:13	No seruaunt can serue two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and loue the other: or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other. Yee can not serue God and riches.
16:14	All these thinges heard the Pharises also which were couetous, and they scoffed at him.
16:15	Then he sayde vnto them, Yee are they, which iustifie your selues before men: but God knoweth your heartes: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of God.
16:16	The Lawe and the Prophets endured vntill Iohn: and since that time the kingdome of God is preached, and euery man preasseth into it.
16:17	Nowe it is more easie that heauen and earth shoulde passe away, then that one title of the Lawe should fall.
16:18	Whosoeuer putteth away his wife, and marieth another, committeth adulterie: and whosoeuer marieth her that is put away from her husband, committeth adulterie.
16:19	There was a certaine riche man, which was clothed in purple and fine linnen, and fared well and delicately euery day.
16:20	Also there was a certaine begger named Lazarus, which was laide at his gate full of sores,
16:21	And desired to bee refreshed with the crommes that fell from the riche mans table: yea, and the dogges came and licked his sores.
16:22	And it was so that the begger died, and was caried by the Angels into Abrahams bosome. The rich man also died, and was buried.
16:23	And being in hell in torments, he lift vp his eyes, and sawe Abraham a farre off, and Lazarus in his bosome.
16:24	Then he cried, and saide, Father Abraham, haue mercie on mee, and sende Lazarus that hee may dippe the tip of his finger in water, and coole my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
16:25	But Abraham saide, Sonne, remember that thou in thy life time receiuedst thy pleasures, and likewise Lazarus paines: now therefore is he comforted, and thou art tormented.
16:26	Besides all this, betweene you and vs there is a great gulfe set, so that they which would goe from hence to you, can not: neither can they come from thence to vs.
16:27	Then he said, I pray thee therfore, father, that thou wouldest sende him to my fathers house,
16:28	(For I haue fiue brethren) that he may testifie vnto them, least they also come into this place of torment.
16:29	Abraham said vnto him, They haue Moses and the Prophets: let them heare them.
16:30	And he sayde, Nay, father Abraham: but if one came vnto them from the dead, they will amend their liues.
16:31	Then he saide vnto him, If they heare not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rise from the dead againe.


16:1	And he sayd also vnto his disciples. Ther was a certayne rych man which had a stewarde that was acused vnto him that he had wasted his goodes.
16:2	And he called him and sayd vnto him: How is it that I heare this of the? Geve a comptes of thy steward shippe: For thou mayste be no longer stewarde.
16:3	The stewarde sayd wt in him selfe: what shall I do? for my master will take awaye fro me ye stewarde shippe. I canot digge and to begge I am ashamed.
16:4	I woote what to do yt when I am put out of ye stewardshippe they maye receave me into their houses.
16:5	Then called he all his masters detters and sayd vnto ye fyrst: how moche owest thou vnto my master?
16:6	And he sayd: an hondred tonnes of oyle. And he sayd to him: take thy bill and syt doune quickly and wryte fiftie.
16:7	Then sayd he to another: what owest thou? And he sayde: an hondred quarters of wheate. He sayd to him: Take thy bill and write foure scoore.
16:8	And the lorde comended the vniust stewarde because he had done wysly. For ye chyldren of this worlde are in their kynde wyser then ye chyldren of lyght.
16:9	And I saye also vnto you: make you frendes of the wicked mammon that when ye shall departe they may receave you into everlastinge habitacions.
16:10	He that is faithfull in that which is leste ye same is faithfull in moche. And he yt is vnfaithfull in ye least: is vnfaithfull also in moche.
16:11	So then yf ye have not ben faithfull in ye wicked mamon? who will beleve you in that which is true?
16:12	And yf ye have not bene faithfull in another manes busines: who shall geve you youre awne?
16:13	No servaunt can serve .ii. masters for other he shall hate ye one and love ye other or els he shall lene to the one and despyse the other. Ye can not serve God and mammon.
16:14	All these thinges herde the pharises also which were coveteous and they mocked him.
16:15	And he sayd vnto the: Ye are they which iustifie youre selves before me: but God knoweth youre hertes. For ye which is highlie estemed amoge me is abhominable in yt sight of god
16:16	The lawe and the Prophetes raygned vntyll the tyme of Iohn: and sence that tyme the kyngdom of God is preached and every man stryveth to goo in.
16:17	Soner shall heven and erth perisshe then one tytle of the lawe shall perisshe.
16:18	Whosoever forsaketh his wyfe and marieth another breaketh matrimony. And every man which marieth her that is devorsed from her husbande committeth advoutry also.
16:19	Ther was a certayne ryche man which was clothed in purple and fyne bysse and fared deliciously every daye.
16:20	And ther was a certayne begger named Lazarus whiche laye at his gate full of soores
16:21	desyringe to be refresshed with the cromes whiche fell from the ryche manes borde. Neverthelesse the dogges came and licked his soores.
16:22	And yt fortuned that the begger dyed and was caried by the angelles into Abrahas bosome. The riche man also died and was buried.
16:23	And beinge in hell in tormetes he lyfte vp his eyes and sawe Abraham a farre of and Lazarus in his bosome
16:24	and he cryed and sayd: father Abraham have mercy on me and sende Lazarus that he maye dippe the tippe of his fynger in water and cole my tonge: for I am tourmented in this flame.
16:25	But Abraha sayd vnto him Sonne remembre that thou in thy lyfe tyme receavedst thy pleasure and contrary wyse Lazarus payne. Now therfore is he comforted and thou art punysshed.
16:26	Beyonde all this bitwene you and vs ther is a greate space set so that they which wolde goo from thence to you cannot: nether maye come from thence to vs.
16:27	Then he sayd: I praye the therfore father send him to my fathers housse.
16:28	For I have fyve brethren: for to warne the left they also come into this place of tourmet.
16:29	Abraha sayd vnto him: they have Moses and the Prophetes let them heare them.
16:30	And he sayd: naye father Abraham but yf one came vnto the from the ded they wolde repent.
16:31	He sayd vnto him: If they heare not Moses and ye prophetes nether will they beleve though one roose from deeth agayne.
