Luke 16:7 in Context — Luke 16

5 E chamando a si a cada um dos devedores de seu senhor, disse ao primeiro: Quanto deves a meu senhor?

6 E ele disse: Cem medidas de azeite. E disse-lhe: Pega a tua conta, senta, e escreve logo cinquenta.

7 Depois disse a outro: E tu, quanto deves? E ele disse: Cem volumes de trigo. E disse-lhe: Toma tua conta, e escreve oitenta.

8 E aquele senhor elogiou o injusto mordomo, por ter feito prudentemente; porque os filhos deste mundo são mais prudentes do que os filhos da luz com esta geração.

9 E eu vos digo: fazei amigos para vós com as riquezas da injustiça, para que quando vos faltar, vos recebam nos tabernáculos eternos.
