42:015:023 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: 42:015:024 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. 42:015:025 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing. 42:015:026 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant. 42:015:027 And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. 42:015:028 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him. 42:015:029 And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: 42:015:030 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. 42:015:031 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine. 42:015:032 It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. 42:016:001 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. 42:016:002 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. 42:016:003 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. 42:016:004 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. 42:016:005 So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord? 42:016:006 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty. 42:016:007 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. 42:016:008 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. 42:016:009 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.
