Psalms 37:30-31
30 The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom,
And his tongue talks of justice. 31 The law of his God is in his heart; None of
his steps shall slide. Alleluia
Luke 16:1-12
16:1 He also said to His disciples: There
was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him
that this man was wasting his goods. 2 So he called him and said to him, `What
is this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you can no
longer be steward.' 3 Then the steward said within himself, `What shall I do?
For my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am
ashamed to beg. 4 `I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship,
they may receive me into their houses.' 5 So he called every one of his
master's debtors to him, and said to the first, `How much do you owe my
master?' 6 And he said, `A hundred measures of oil.' So he said to him, `Take
your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.' 7 Then he said to another,
`And how much do you owe?' So he said, `A hundred measures of wheat.' And he
said to him, `Take your bill, and write eighty.' 8 So the master commended the
unjust steward because he had dealt shrewdly. For the sons of this world are
more shrewd in their generation than the sons of light. 9 And I say to you,
make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may
receive you into an everlasting home. 10 He who is faithful in what is least is
faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in
much. 11 Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who
will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful
in what is another man's, who will give you what is your own?. Glory is due to our God to the age of all
ages. Amen
