Lu: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.
Lu:16:11: If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
Lu: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?
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:16:14: And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
Lu: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.
Lu: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.
Lu:16:17: And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
Lu: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.
Lu:16:19: There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
Lu:16:20: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
Lu: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.
Lu: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;
Lu:16:23: And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
Lu: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.
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.
Lu:16:27: Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:
Lu:16:28: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
Lu:16:29: Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
Lu:16:30: And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
Lu: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.
Chapter 17
Lu:17:1: Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
Lu:17:2: It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
Lu:17:3: Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
Lu:17:4: And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.
Lu:17:5: And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
Lu:17:6: And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
Lu:17:7: But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?
Lu:17:8: And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?
Lu:17:9: Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.
Lu:17:10: So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.
Lu:17:11: And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
Lu:17:12: And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
Lu:17:13: And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
Lu:17:14: And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
