4I have come to a decision what to do, so that when I am put out of my position they will take me into their houses.
5And sending for every one who was in debt to his lord he said to the first, What is the amount of your debt to my lord?
6And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said, Take your account straight away and put down fifty.
7Then he said to another, What is the amount of your debt? And he said, A hundred measures of grain. And he said to him, Take your account and put down eighty.
8And his lord was pleased with the false servant, because he had been wise; for the sons of this world are wiser in relation to their generation than the sons of light.
9And I say to you, Make friends for yourselves through the wealth of this life, so that when it comes to an end, you may be taken into the eternal resting-places.
10He who is true in a little, is true in much; he who is false in small things, is false in great.
