1Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.
1耶穌又對門徒說：「有一個財主的管家，別人向他主人告他浪費主人的財物。
2So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your management, for you cannot be manager any longer.’
2主人叫他來，對他說：『我聽見你這事怎麼樣呢？把你所經管的交代明白，因你不能再作 我的 管家。』
3The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too ashamed to beg.
3那管家心裏說：『主人辭我，不用我再作管家，我將來做甚麼？鋤地呢？無力；討飯呢？怕羞。
4I know what I will do, so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’
4我知道怎麼行，好叫人在我不作管家之後，接我到他們家裏去。』
5And he called in each one of his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked the first.
5於是把欠他主人債的，一個一個地叫了來，問頭一個說：『你欠我主人多少？』
6‘A hundred measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager. ‘Sit down quickly, and write fifty.’
6他說：『一百簍油。』管家說：『拿你的帳，快坐下，寫五十。』
7Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him.
7又問一個說：『你欠多少？』他說：『一百石麥子。』管家說：『拿你的帳，寫八十。』
8The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.
8主人就誇獎這不義的管家做事聰明；因為今世之子，在世事之上，較比光明之子更加聰明。
9I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings.
9我又告訴你們，要藉着那不義的錢財結交朋友，到了錢財無用的時候，他們可以接你們到永存的帳幕裏去。
10Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
10人在最小的事上忠心，在大事上也忠心；在最小的事上不義，在大事上也不義。
11So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?
11倘若你們在不義的錢財上不忠心，誰還把那真實的 錢財 託付你們呢？
12And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?
12倘若你們在別人的東西上不忠心，誰還把你們自己的東西給你們呢？
13No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”
13一個僕人不能事奉兩個主；不是惡這個愛那個，就是重這個輕那個。你們不能又事奉上帝，又事奉瑪門。」
14The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all of this and were scoffing at Jesus.
14法利賽人是貪愛錢財的；他們聽見這一切話，就嗤笑耶穌。
15So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God.
15耶穌對他們說：「你們是在人面前自稱為義的，你們的心，上帝卻知道；因為人所尊貴的，是上帝看為可憎惡的。
16The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
16律法和先知到 約翰 為止，從此上帝國的福音傳開了，人人努力要進去。
17But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.
17天地廢去較比律法的一點一畫落空還容易。
18Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
18凡休妻另娶的就是犯姦淫；娶被休之妻的也是犯姦淫。」
19Now there was a rich man dressed in purple and fine linen, who lived each day in joyous splendor.
19「有一個財主穿着紫色 袍 和細麻布衣服，天天奢華宴樂。
20And a beggar named Lazarus lay at his gate, covered with sores
20又有一個討飯的，名叫 拉撒路 ，渾身生瘡，被人放在財主門口，
21and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
21要得財主桌子上掉下來的 零碎 充飢，並且狗來舔他的瘡。
22One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. And the rich man also died and was buried.
22後來那討飯的死了，被天使帶去放在 亞伯拉罕 的懷裏。財主也死了，並且埋葬了。
23In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side.
23他在陰間受痛苦，舉目遠遠地望見 亞伯拉罕 ，又望見 拉撒路 在他懷裏，
24So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’
24就喊着說：『我祖 亞伯拉罕 哪，可憐我吧！打發 拉撒路 來，用指頭尖蘸點水，涼涼我的舌頭；因為我在這火焰裏，極其痛苦。』
25But Abraham answered, ‘Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things. But now he is comforted here, while you are in agony.
25亞伯拉罕 說：『兒啊，你該回想你生前享過福， 拉撒路 也受過苦；如今他在這裏得安慰，你倒受痛苦。
26And besides all this, a great chasm has been fixed between us and you, so that even those who wish cannot cross from here to you, nor can anyone cross from there to us.’
26不但這樣，並且在你我之間，有深淵限定，以致人要從這邊過到你們那邊是不能的；要從那邊過到我們這邊也是不能的。』
27‘Then I beg you, father,’ he said, ‘send Lazarus to my father’s house,
27財主說：『我祖啊！既是這樣，求你打發 拉撒路 到我父家去；
28for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also end up in this place of torment.’
28因為我還有五個弟兄，他可以對他們作見證，免得他們也來到這痛苦的地方。』
29But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let your brothers listen to them.’
29亞伯拉罕 說：『他們有 摩西 和先知 的話 可以聽從。』
30‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone is sent to them from the dead, they will repent.’
30他說：『我祖 亞伯拉罕 哪，不是的，若有一個從死裏 復活的 ，到他們那裏去的，他們必要悔改。』
31Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’”
31亞伯拉罕 說：『若不聽從 摩西 和先知 的話 ，就是有一個從死裏復活的，他們也是不聽勸。』」
