Luke 16:3


← Luke 16:2 [words of Jesus] Luke 16:3 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Luke 16:4 [words of Jesus] →
And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
