16 And he _was _saying also to the apprentices/followers:
A_ certain _man was rich, who was _having a_manager, and this one was _accused to _him as scattering the things possessing of _him.
2 And having _called him, he _said to _him:
What is this I _am _hearing concerning you?
Give _back the account of _the management of _you, because/for you _are_ not _being _able anymore to _be _managing.
3 And the manager said by himself:
What may _I _do, because the master of _me is _taking _away the management from me?
I _am_ not _able To _be _digging, I _am _being _ashamed to _be _begging.
4 I _knew what I _may _do, in _order _that whenever I _may _be _removed from the management, they _may _receive me into the homes of _them.
5 And having _called _to each one of _the debtors of _the master of _himself, he _was _saying to _the first:
How _much you _are _owing to _the master of _me?
6 And he said:
A_hundred batos/(bat)_measures of _olive _oil.
And he said to _him:
Receive of _you the bills and having _sat _down quickly write fifty.
7 Then to _another he _said:
And how _much are_ you _owing?
And he said:
A_hundred koros/(kor)_measures of _wheat.
He _is _saying to _him:
Receive of _you the bills and write eighty.
8 And the master praised the manager of_ the _unrighteousness, because he _performed prudently.
Because the sons of_ the this _age are more _prudently beyond the sons of _the light in the generation which of _themselves.
9 And I am _saying to _you _all, make friends for _yourselves by the money of_ the _unrighteousness, in _order _that whenever it _may _fail, they _may _receive you _all into the eternal dwellings.
10 The one faithful with the_least, is also faithful with much, and the one unrighteous with the_least, is also unrighteous with much.
11 Therefore if you _all _became not faithful with the unrighteous money, who will _be _entrusting the true wealth to _you _all?
12 And if you _all _became not faithful with the stranger, who will _be _giving the_ your _things to _you _all?
13 Not _one house _servant is _able to _be _serving for _two masters, because/for either he _will _be _hating the one, and the other he _will _be _loving, or of_the_one he _will _be _upholding, and of _the other he _will _be _despising.
You _all _are_ not _being _able to _be _serving for_god and money.
14 And all the Farisaios_party were _hearing these things, being money _lovers, and they _were _sneering _at him.
15 And he _said to _them:
You _all are the ones justifying yourselves before the people, but the god is _knowing the hearts of _you _all, because the thing exalted among people, an_abomination is before the god.
16 The law and the prophets were until Yōannaʸs, from then the kingdom of_ the _god is _being _good _message _preached, and everyone is _forcing into it.
17 But it _is easier the for _heaven and the earth to _pass _away, than one serif of _the law to _fall.
18 Everyone which sending _away the wife of _him and marrying another, is _committing _adultery, and every the one marrying having _been _sent _away from a_husband, is _committing _adultery.
19 And a_ certain _man was rich, and was _dressing _in purple and linen, being _gladdened splendidly in _every day.
20 And a_ certain _poor man by_the_name Lazaros, had _been _laid at the gate of _him, having _been _ulcerated 21 and desiring to _be _satisfied from which which falling falling from the table of _the rich man, but even the dogs coming were _licking _up the ulcers of _him.
22 And it _became the poor man to _die _off, and him to _be _carried _away by the messengers into the bosom of _Abraʼam/(ʼAⱱrāhām).
And the rich man died _off also and was _buried.
23 And in the Haidaʸs having _lifted _up the eyes of _him, being in torments, he _is _seeing Abraʼam from afar, and Lazaros in the bosoms of _him.
24 And he having _called said, father Abraʼam, show _mercy to _me and send Lazaros, in _order _that he _may _dip the extremity of _the finger of _him in _water, and may _cool _down the tongue of _me, because I _am _being _distressed in the this flame.
25 But Abraʼam said:
Child, be _reminded that you _took _back the good of _you in the life of _you, and Lazaros likewise the evil.
But now here he _is _being _comforted, and you are _being _distressed.
26 And among all these things, between us and you _all a_chasm great has _been _established, so _that the ones wanting to _pass _through here to you _all may_ not _be _able, nor may _be _crossing _over from _there to us.
27 And, he _said, therefore I _am _asking you father, that you _may _send him to the house of _the father of _me, 28 for/because I _am _having five brothers, so _that he _may _be _testifying to _them, in _order _that they may_ not also _come to the this place of_ the _torment.
29 But Abraʼam/(ʼAⱱrāhām) is _saying:
They _are _having Mōsaʸs/(Mosheh) and the prophets, them _let _hear from _them.
30 And he said:
No, father Abraʼam, but if someone from the_dead may _be _gone to them, they _will _be _repenting.
31 But he _said to _him:
If they _are_ not _hearing from _Mōsaʸs and the prophets, not _even if someone from the_dead may _rise _up, they _will _be _being _persuaded.
