“The master praised the unrighteous manager(A) because he had acted shrewdly. For the children of this age(B) are more shrewd than the children of light(C) in dealing with their own people.[a] And I tell you, make friends(D) for yourselves by means of worldly wealth[b](E) so that when it fails, they may welcome you into eternal dwellings. 10 Whoever is faithful(F) in very little(G) is also faithful in much, and whoever is unrighteous in very little is also unrighteous in much.
