"He called to him to him and said. "‘What is this that I hear about you? Render an account of your stewardship; for you can no longer be steward.’
3 Ola owakili wayanga mumwoyo gwa kwao, Embombe wele, nkashere ogosi wane anefwa ouwakili? Alime sebwezizye alabhe, elola esoni.
"Now the steward said to himself. ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my stewardship? I am not strong enough to dig, to beg I am ashamed.
4 Endimenye lyembabhombe ili nabhanefwe huwakili bhankaribizyaje mkhaya zyabho.

5 Wabhakwizya bhabhakhopile amadeni aga gosi wakwe shila omo wabhora owhwande, 'odayiwa nogosi wane?'
"So he called to him each of his master’s debtors and said to the first, ‘How much money do you owe my master?’
6 Wayanga eshipimo mia eshe mafuta wabhora 'ege ehati yaho simba hamsini.'
"‘A hundred measures of oil,’ he answered. "He said to him, ‘Take your bill and sit down quickly and write fifty."
7 antele wabhora owamwaho na we odaiwa?' wayanga 'makanda mia age ngano wabhoro ega ehati yaho simba themanini.'
"To a second he said, ‘How much do you owe?’ "The man answered, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ "‘Here is you bill,’ he said, ‘change it to eighty measures.’

"And the master praised the unjust steward because he had acted shrewdly; for the sons of this world are in relation to their own generation wiser than the sons of the light. (aiōn g165)
9 Nane embabhola bhombelaji abhe rafiki weshoma eshe udhalimu ili nehaibhanemo bhabhakaribizyaje hukhaya eye umilele. (aiōnios g166)
"And to you I say, Use mammon, dishonest as it is, to make yourselves friends, so that when it shall fail they will welcome you to the eternal tabernacles. (aiōnios g166)

"If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will trust to you the true riches?
12 Na nkashile semwali bhaminifu hushoma esha mntu owenje wenu yabhabhapele yeli yahulimwe mwemwe?
"And if you are not faithful with what belongs to another, who will give you what is your own?
13 Nomo obhombambo yabhabhambele agosi bhabhele, afwanaje abhahuvitwe ono nahusongwe ono, au abhakhatane nono na hudhalau ono. Sawezizye hutumishile Ongolobhe ne shoma.”
"No one can be a household servants to two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will cling to the one and despise the other. You cannot be the slave of God and of Mammon."
14 Basi Mafarisayo, abhene bhebho bhasogwa ehela bhahovwezye ago gonti bha dhihaki.
