“He who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much; and he who is unrighteous in a very little thing is unrighteous also in much.

Therefore if you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous wealth, who will entrust the true riches to you?

And if you have not been faithful in the use of that which is another’s, who will give you that which is your own?

Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were listening to all these things and were scoffing at Him.
