不義的管家

16 耶穌又對門徒說:“有一個財主的管家,有人在他主人面前告他浪費主人的財物。 主人把他叫來,對他說:‘我聽見關於你的是怎麼一回事呢?把你管理的帳目交代清楚,因為你不能再作管家了。’ 那管家心裡說:‘主人不要我再作管家了,我作甚麼才好呢?鋤地吧,沒有力氣!討飯吧,怕羞! 我知道要怎麼作了,好使人在我離開管家的職務以後,接我到他們家裡去。’ 於是把欠他主人債的人,一個一個地叫來,問頭一個說:‘你欠我主人多少?’ 他說:‘四千公升油。’管家說:‘拿你的欠單去,快坐下寫二千。’ 又問一個說:‘你欠多少?’他說:‘四萬公升麥子。’管家說:‘拿你的欠單去,寫三萬。’ 主人就誇獎這不義的管家作事機警;因為在應付自己的世事上,今世之子比光明之子更精明。 我告訴你們,要用不義的錢財(“錢財”亞蘭文是“瑪門”)去結交朋友,好叫錢財無用的時候,他們可以接你們到永恆的帳棚裡。 10 在最小的事上忠心的,在大事上也忠心;在最小的事上不義的,在大事上也不義。 11 如果你們在不義的錢財上不忠心,誰還把真實的錢財託付給你們呢? 12 如果你們在別人的東西上不忠心,誰還把你們自己的東西交給你們呢?

不能服事兩個主人(A)

13 “一個家僕不能服事兩個主人;他若不是恨這個愛那個,就是忠於這個輕視那個。你們不能服事 神,又服事金錢。” 14 貪財的法利賽人聽見這些話,就嗤笑耶穌。 15 耶穌對他們說:“你們在人面前自稱為義, 神卻知道你們的心;因為人所高舉的, 神卻看作是可憎惡的。 16 律法和先知到約翰就結束了。從此, 神的國的福音就傳開了,人人都要努力進去。 17 天地過去,要比律法的一點一畫失效還容易呢。 18 凡休妻另娶的,就犯了姦淫;娶被丈夫所休的,也是犯了姦淫。

財主與拉撒路

19 “有一個財主,身穿紫色袍和細麻衣,天天奢華宴樂。 20 又有一個乞丐,名叫拉撒路,滿身是瘡,被人放在財主門口, 21 想得財主桌子上掉下來的零碎充飢;並且有狗來舔他的瘡。 22 後來乞丐死了,被天使送到亞伯拉罕的懷裡。那財主也死了,並且埋葬了。 23 財主在陰間受痛苦,舉目遠遠望見亞伯拉罕,和他懷裡的拉撒路, 24 就喊著說:‘我祖亞伯拉罕啊,可憐我吧!打發拉撒路來用指頭蘸點水,涼涼我的舌頭吧!因為我在這火燄裡非常痛苦。’ 25 亞伯拉罕說:‘孩子,你應該回想你生前享過福,同樣拉撒路受過苦,現在他在這裡得安慰,你卻要受苦了。 26 不但這樣,我們與你們之間,有深淵隔開,人想從這邊過到你們那裡是不可能的,從那邊過到我們這邊也是不可能的。’ 27 那人說:‘我祖啊,那麼求你差遣拉撒路到我家裡去, 28 因為我有五個兄弟,他可以警告他們,免得他們也到這受苦的地方來。’ 29 亞伯拉罕說:‘他們有摩西和先知可以聽從。’ 30 他說:‘不然,我祖亞伯拉罕啊,如果有人從死人中復活,到他們那裡去,他們必定會悔改。’ 31 亞伯拉罕說:‘如果他們不聽從摩西和先知,就算有一個從死人中復活的人,他們也不會接受勸告。’”

善用錢財

16 耶穌又對門徒說:「某財主有個管家,有人控告這管家浪費主人的財物。 財主便把管家召來,對他說,『聽說你浪費我的財物,到底是怎麼回事?把帳目交代清楚,你不能再當管家了。』

「管家私下盤算,『主人要辭退我了,怎麼辦呢?鋤地我沒有力氣,討飯我又感到羞恥。 我知道該怎麼辦了!就算被辭退了,也會有人照應我。』 於是,他把欠他主人債的一個一個召來,問第一個,『你欠了我主人多少?』

「他回答說,『一百桶油。』

「管家說,『這是你的帳,快坐下,改成五十吧!』

「管家又問另一個,『你欠多少?』

「他回答說,『一百石麥子。』

「管家說,『這是你的帳,改成八十石吧。』

「主人誇獎這個不義的管家精明。因為今世的兒女在處理世事方面比光明的兒女更精明。

「我告訴你們,要善用今世[a]的錢財,廣結朋友。這樣,當錢財不管用時,他們會接你們到永遠的居所。

見微知著

10 「一個人在小事上忠心,在大事上也會忠心;在小事上靠不住,在大事上更靠不住。 11 如果你們不能忠心地處理今世的財富,誰會把真正的財富交託給你們呢? 12 如果你們不能忠心地處理別人的產業,誰會把你們名下的產業交給你們呢? 13 一個僕人不能服侍兩位主人,因為他不是恨這位、愛那位,就是重這位、輕那位。你們不能又事奉上帝,又崇拜金錢。」

警戒貪財的法利賽人

14 法利賽人向來貪財,他們一面聽一面嗤笑耶穌。 15 耶穌對他們說:「你們在人面前自以為義,但上帝能看透你們的心。因為世人所看重的東西在上帝看來卻是可憎的。 16 約翰還沒有來以前,律法書和先知書是你們的準則。他出來後,上帝國的福音開始廣傳,人人都在努力進上帝的國。 17 不過,就是天地都消失,律法的一點一劃也不會失效。 18 任何人休妻另娶,就是犯通姦罪,娶被休的女子也是犯通姦罪。」

財主和乞丐

19 耶穌又說:「有個財主天天衣著華麗,生活奢侈。 20 又有一個名叫拉撒路的乞丐身上長滿了膿瘡,被人放在財主家門口。 21 他渴望吃到財主桌上掉下來的食物殘渣,卻只有狗來舔他的瘡。

22 「後來,乞丐死了,天使帶他到亞伯拉罕身邊。財主也死了,被人埋葬了。 23 他在陰間受折磨,抬頭遠遠地看見亞伯拉罕和他身邊的拉撒路, 24 就喊著說,『我的先祖亞伯拉罕啊!求你可憐我,派拉撒路用指尖蘸點水來潤潤我的舌頭吧!我在這火中實在痛苦不堪。』

25 「亞伯拉罕說,『孩子啊!你要想想,你生前享福,而拉撒路受苦;如今他在這裡得到安慰,而你受折磨。 26 況且,在你我中間隔著一道深淵,這邊的人不能到你那邊去,你那邊的人也不能到這裡來。』

27 「財主說,『我的先祖啊,那麼求你派拉撒路去我父親家裡, 28 因為我有五個弟兄。讓拉撒路去警告他們,以免他們也來到這痛苦的地方。』

29 「但是亞伯拉罕卻說,『他們可以聽從摩西和眾先知的話呀!』

30 「財主回答說,『我的先祖亞伯拉罕啊!他們不會聽的。但如果有一個死而復活的人去警告他們,他們肯定會悔改!』

31 「亞伯拉罕說,『如果他們不聽從摩西和眾先知的話,即使一個人從死裡復活,他們也不會信服。』」

  1. 16·9 今世」希臘文是「不義」。

16 And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

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.

So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.

And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.

15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.

18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.

19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
