4 Je sais ce que je ferai, pour qu’il y ait des gens qui me reçoivent dans leurs maisons quand je serai destitué de mon emploi.
5 Et, faisant venir chacun des débiteurs de son maître, il dit au premier: Combien dois-tu à mon maître?
6 Cent mesures d’huile, répondit-il. Et il lui dit: Prends ton billet, assieds-toi vite, et écris cinquante.
7 Il dit ensuite à un autre: Et toi, combien dois-tu? Cent mesures de blé, répondit-il. Et il lui dit: Prends ton billet, et écris quatre-vingts.
