LUKE 16:9 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.”
I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings — use worldly wealth (tou mamōna tēs adikias, mammon of unrighteousness, unreliable wealth) to gain friends: the positive application of the manager's strategy. Money used to create relationships of generosity produces the welcome into eternal dwellings when the money is gone. The friends who welcome into eternal dwellings are those who have been served by the generous use of wealth.
