Luke 16:2-4

New Testament for Everyone

² So he called him and said to him, ‘What’s all this I hear about you? Present an account of your stewardship; I’m not going to have you as my steward anymore!’

³ “At this, the steward said to himself, ‘What shall I do? My master is taking away my stewardship from me! I can’t do manual work, and I’d be ashamed to beg . . .

⁴ “ ‘I have an idea what to do!—so that people will welcome me into their households when I am fired from being steward.’
