  • 16:11 So if you have not been faithful in handling unjust wealth, who will put real wealth in your care? 1
  • 16:13 No servant in a household can serve two masters. Either the servant will hate one master and love the other, or be loyal to one and look down on the other. You cannot serve both God and wealth." 1
