The Parable of the wicked Mammon.
There was a certain 1rich man, which had a steward that was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods. And called him, and said unto him. How is it that I hear this of thee? Give accounts of thy stewardship. For thou mayst be no longer my steward. The steward said with in him self. What shall I do? for my master will take away from me my stewardship. I can not dig, and to beg, I am ashamed. I wot what to do, that when I am put out of my stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

- 1Luke. 16.
Then called he all his masters debtors, and said unto the first, how much owest thou unto my master? And he said, an hundred tonnes of oil, and he said to him: take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty. Then said he to an other, what owest thou? And he said, an hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him. Take thy bill, and write four score. And the Lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely. For the children of this world, are in their kind, wiser then the children of light. And I say also unto you, make you friends of the wicked Mammon, that when ye shall have need, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
