¹And 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.

¹وقال ايضا لتلاميذه كان انسان غني له وكيل فوشي به اليه بانه يبذّر امواله.

²And 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.

²فدعاه وقال له ما هذا الذي اسمع عنك. اعط حساب وكالتك لانك لا تقدر ان تكون وكيلا بعد.

³Then 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.

³فقال الوكيل في نفسه ماذا افعل. لان سيدي يأخذ مني الوكالة. لست استطيع ان انقب واستحي ان استعطي.

⁴I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

⁴قد علمت ماذا افعل حتى اذا عزلت عن الوكالة يقبلوني في بيوتهم.

⁵So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

⁵فدعا كل واحد من مديوني سيده وقال للأول كم عليك لسيدي.

⁶And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

⁶فقال مئة بث زيت. فقال له خذ صكك واجلس عاجلا واكتب خمسين.

⁷Then 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.

⁷ثم قال لآخر وانت كم عليك. فقال مئة كرّ قمح. فقال له خذ صكك واكتب ثمانين.

⁸And 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.

⁸فمدح السيد وكيل الظلم اذ بحكمة فعل. لان ابناء هذا الدهر احكم من ابناء النور في جيلهم.

⁹And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

⁹وانا اقول لكم اصنعوا لكم اصدقاء بمال الظلم حتى اذا فنيتم يقبلونكم في المظال الابدية.

¹⁰He 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.

¹⁰الامين في القليل امين ايضا في الكثير. والظالم في القليل ظالم ايضا في الكثير.

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

¹¹فان لم تكونوا امناء في مال الظلم فمن يأتمنكم على الحق.

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

¹²وان لم تكونوا امناء في ما هو للغير فمن يعطيكم ما هو لكم.

¹³No 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.

¹³لا يقدر خادم ان يخدم سيدين. لانه اما ان يبغض الواحد ويحب الآخر او يلازم الواحد ويحتقر الآخر. لا تقدرون ان تخدموا الله والمال

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

¹⁴وكان الفريسيون ايضا يسمعون هذا كله وهم محبون للمال فاستهزأوا به.

¹⁵And 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.

¹⁵فقال لهم انتم الذين تبررون انفسكم قدام الناس. ولكن الله يعرف قلوبكم. ان المستعلي عند الناس هو رجس قدام الله

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

¹⁶كان الناموس والانبياء الى يوحنا. ومن ذلك الوقت يبشر بملكوت الله وكل واحد يغتصب نفسه اليه.

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

¹⁷ولكن زوال السماء والارض ايسر من ان تسقط نقطة واحدة من الناموس.

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

¹⁸كل من يطلّق امرأته ويتزوج باخرى يزني وكل من يتزوج بمطلّقة من رجل يزني

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

¹⁹كان انسان غني وكان يلبس الارجوان والبز وهو يتنعم كل يوم مترفها.

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

²⁰وكان مسكين اسمه لعازر الذي طرح عند بابه مضروبا بالقروح.

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

²¹ويشتهي ان يشبع من الفتات الساقط من مائدة الغني. بل كانت الكلاب تأتي وتلحس قروحه.

²²And 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;

²²فمات المسكين وحملته الملائكة الى حضن ابراهيم. ومات الغني ايضا ودفن.

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

²³فرفع عينيه في الهاوية وهو في العذاب ورأى ابراهيم من بعيد ولعازر في حضنه.

²⁴And 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.

²⁴فنادى وقال يا ابي ابراهيم ارحمني وارسل لعازر ليبل طرف اصبعه بماء ويبرّد لساني لاني معذب في هذا اللهيب.

²⁵But 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.

²⁵فقال ابراهيم يا ابني اذكر انك استوفيت خيراتك في حياتك وكذلك لعازر البلايا. والآن هو يتعزى وانت تتعذب.

²⁶And 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.

²⁶وفوق هذا كله بيننا وبينكم هوّة عظيمة قد أثبتت حتى ان الذين يريدون العبور من ههنا اليكم لا يقدرون ولا الذين من هناك يجتازون الينا.

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

²⁷فقال اسألك اذا يا ابت ان ترسله الى بيت ابي.

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

²⁸لان لي خمسة اخوة. حتى يشهد لهم لكي لا يأتوا هم ايضا الى موضع العذاب هذا.

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

²⁹قال له ابراهيم عندهم موسى والانبياء. ليسمعوا منهم.

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

³⁰فقال لا يا ابي ابراهيم. بل اذا مضى اليهم واحد من الاموات يتوبون.

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

³¹فقال له ان كانوا لا يسمعون من موسى والانبياء ولا ان قام واحد من الاموات يصدقون
