The Lord said this parable, "There was a rich man who had a steward,
and charges were brought to him that this man was wasting his goods.
And he called him and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about
you? Turn in the account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be
steward.' And the steward said to himself, 'What shall I do, since my
master is taking the stewardship away from me? I am not strong enough to
dig, and I am ashamed to beg. I have decided what to do, so that
people may receive me into their houses when I am put out of the
stewardship.' So, summoning his master's debtors one by one, he said to the
first, 'How much do you owe my master?' He said, 'A hundred measures of
oil.' And he said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and
write fifty.' Then he said to another, 'And how much do you owe?' He
said, 'A hundred measures of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill,
and write eighty.' The master commended the dishonest steward for his
shrewdness; for the sons of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their
own generation than the sons of light. And I tell you, make friends
for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it fails
they may receive you into the eternal habitations.
