| 1 He also said to the disciples, "There was a rich man who had a steward, and charges were brought to him that this man was wasting his goods. | 1 Dicebat autem et ad disci pulos: “ Homo quidam erat dives, qui habebatvilicum, et hic diffamatus est apud illum quasi dissipasset bona ipsius. |
| 2 And he called him and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Turn in the account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.' | 2 Etvocavit illum et ait illi: “Quid hoc audio de te? Redde rationem vilicationistuae; iam enim non poteris vilicare”. |
| 3 And the steward said to himself, 'What shall I do, since my master is taking the stewardship away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg. | 3 Ait autem vilicus intra se: “Quidfaciam, quia dominus meus aufert a me vilicationem? Fodere non valeo, mendicareerubesco. |
| 4 I have decided what to do, so that people may receive me into their houses when I am put out of the stewardship.' | 4 Scio quid faciam, ut, cum amotus fuero a vilicatione, recipiant mein domos suas”. |
| 5 So, summoning his master's debtors one by one, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe my master?' | 5 Convocatis itaque singulis debitoribus domini sui, dicebatprimo: “Quantum debes domino meo?”. |
| 6 He said, 'A hundred measures of oil.' And he said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.' | 6 At ille dixit: “Centum cados olei”.Dixitque illi: “Accipe cautionem tuam et sede cito, scribe quinquaginta”. |
| 7 Then he said to another, 'And how much do you owe?' He said, 'A hundred measures of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.' | 7 Deinde alii dixit: “Tu vero quantum debes?”. Qui ait: “Centum corostritici”. Ait illi: “Accipe litteras tuas et scribe octoginta”. |
| 8 The master commended the dishonest steward for his shrewdness; for the sons of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the sons of light. | 8 Etlaudavit dominus vilicum iniquitatis, quia prudenter fecisset, quia filii huiussaeculi prudentiores filiis lucis in generatione sua sunt.
|
| 9 And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it fails they may receive you into the eternal habitations. | 9 Et ego vobis dico: Facite vobis amicos de mammona iniquitatis, ut, cumdefecerit, recipiant vos in aeterna tabernacula.
|
| 10 "He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much; and he who is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much. | 10 Qui fidelis est in minimo, et in maiori fidelis est; et, qui in modicoiniquus est, et in maiori iniquus est.
|
| 11 If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will entrust to you the true riches? | 11 Si ergo in iniquo mammona fideles non fuistis, quod verum est, quis credetvobis? |
| 12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own? | 12 Et si in alieno fideles non fuistis, quod vestrum est, quis dabitvobis?
|
| 13 No servant can serve two masters; for 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 God and mammon." | 13 Nemo servus potest duobus dominis servire: aut enim unum odiet et alterumdiliget, aut uni adhaerebit et alterum contemnet. Non potestis Deo servire etmammonae ”.
|
| 14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all this, and they scoffed at him. | 14 Audiebant autem omnia haec pharisaei, qui erant avari, et deridebant illum. |
| 15 But he said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts; for what is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God. | 15 Et ait illis: “ Vos estis, qui iustificatis vos coram hominibus; Deus autemnovit corda vestra, quia, quod hominibus altum est, abominatio est ante Deum.
|
| 16 "The law and the prophets were until John; since then the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and every one enters it violently. | 16 Lex et Prophetae usque ad Ioannem; ex tunc regnum Dei evangelizatur, et omnisin illud vim facit.
|
| 17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one dot of the law to become void. | 17 Facilius est autem caelum et terram praeterire, quam de Lege unum apicemcadere.
|
| 18 "Every one who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery. | 18 Omnis, qui dimittit uxorem suam et ducit alteram, moechatur; et, qui dimissama viro ducit, moechatur.
|
| 19 "There was a rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. | 19 Homo quidam erat dives et induebatur purpura et bysso et epulabatur cotidiesplendide. |
| 20 And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, full of sores, | 20 Quidam autem pauper nomine Lazarus iacebat ad ianuam eiusulceribus plenus |
| 21 who desired to be fed with what fell from the rich man's table; moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. | 21 et cupiens saturari de his, quae cadebant de mensa divitis;sed et canes veniebant et lingebant ulcera eius. |
| 22 The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried; | 22 Factum est autem utmoreretur pauper et portaretur ab angelis in sinum Abrahae; mortuus est autem etdives et sepultus est. |
| 23 and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes, and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus in his bosom. | 23 Et in inferno elevans oculos suos, cum esset intormentis, videbat Abraham a longe et Lazarum in sinu eius. |
| 24 And he called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy upon me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in anguish in this flame.' | 24 Et ipse clamansdixit: “Pater Abraham, miserere mei et mitte Lazarum, ut intingat extremumdigiti sui in aquam, ut refrigeret linguam meam, quia crucior in hac flamma”. |
| 25 But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish. | 25 At dixit Abraham: “Fili, recordare quia recepisti bona tua in vita tua, etLazarus similiter mala; nunc autem hic consolatur, tu vero cruciaris. |
| 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would pass from here to you may not be able, and none may cross from there to us.' | 26 Et inhis omnibus inter nos et vos chaos magnum firmatum est, ut hi, qui volunt hinctransire ad vos, non possint, neque inde ad nos transmeare”. |
| 27 And he said, 'Then I beg you, father, to send him to my father's house, | 27 Et ait: “Rogoergo te, Pater, ut mittas eum in domum patris mei |
| 28 for I have five brothers, so that he may warn them, lest they also come into this place of torment.' | 28 — habeo enim quinquefratres — ut testetur illis, ne et ipsi veniant in locum hunc tormentorum”. |
| 29 But Abraham said, 'They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.' | 29 Ait autem Abraham: “Habent Moysen et Prophetas; audiant illos”. |
| 30 And he said, 'No, father Abraham; but if some one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.' | 30 Atille dixit: “Non, pater Abraham, sed si quis ex mortuis ierit ad eos,paenitentiam agent”. |
| 31 He said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be convinced if some one should rise from the dead.'" | 31 Ait autem illi: “Si Moysen et Prophetas non audiunt,neque si quis ex mortuis resurrexerit, credent” ”.
