Chap. XVI. He teacheth the riche to procure heauen vvith their riches. 14 And being therfore derided of the couetous Pharisees (vvho savv temporal riches promised in the letter of the Lavv) he shevveth that novv is come the preaching of the kingdom of God, be wheit the Lavv for al that in no iote shal be frustrat. 19 foretelling them also, that the couetous Ievves shal be denied of their father Abraham, when poore Laxarus (the penitent Gentil) shal rest in his bosome.

1    noteAnd he said also to his Disciples, There vvas a cartaine riche man that had a note bailife: & he vvas il reported of vnto him, as he that had vvasted his goods.

2   And he called him, and said to him, Vvhat heare I this of thee? render account of thy note bailiship: for novv thou canst no more be bailife.

3   And the bailife said vvithin him self, Vvhat shal I doe, because my lord taketh avvay from me the bailiship? digge I am notable, to begge I am ashamed.

4   I knovv vvhat I vvil doe, that vvhen I shal be remoued from the bailiship, they may receiue me into their houses.

5   Therfore calling together euery one of his lords detters, he said to the first, Hovv much doest thou ovve my lord?

6   But he saith, An hundred pipes of oile. And he said to him, Take thy bil: and sit dovvne, quickly vvrite fiftie.

7   After that he said to an other, But thou, hovv much doest thou ovve? Vvho said, An hundreth quarters of vvheat. He said to him, Take thy bil, and vvrite eightie.

8   And09Q0740 the lord praised the bailife of iniquitie, because he had done vvisely: for the children of this vvorld, are vviser then the children of light in their generation.

9   And I say to you, Make vnto you frendes of the note mammon of iniquitie: that vvhen you faile,09Q0741 they may receiue you into the eternal tabernacles. &cross4;

10   He that is faithful in the lest, is faithful in the greater also: and he that is vniust in litle, is vniust in the greater also.

11   If then you haue not been faithful in the vniust mammon: vvith that vvhich is the true vvho may credit you?

12   And if you haue not been faithful in other mens: that vvhich is yours, vvho vvil giue you?

13    noteNo seruant can serue tvvo maisters, for either he shal hate the one, and loue the other: or cleaue to one, and contemne the other. You can not serue God and mammon.

14   And the Pharisees vvhich vvere couetous, heard al these things: and they derided him.

15   And he said to them, You are they that iustifie your selues before men, but god knovveth your hartes, because that vvhich is high to men, is abomination before God.

16    noteThe lavv and the prophets, vnto Iohn. from that time the kingdom of God is euangelized, and euery one doth force tovvard it.

17    noteAnd it is easier for heauen and earth to passe, then one tittle of the lavv to fall.

18    noteEuery one that dimisseth his vvife,09Q0742 and marieth an other, committeth aduoutrie: and he that marieth her that is dimissed from her

-- --

husband, committeth aduoutrie.

19    noteThere vvas a certaine riche man, & he vvas clothed vvith purple and silke: and he fared euery day magnifically.

20   And there vvas a certaine begger called Lazarus, that lay at his gate, ful of sores:

21   desiring to be filled of the crommes, that fel from the riche mans table, but the dogges also came, and licked his sores.

22   And it came to passe that the begger died, and vvas caried09Q0743 of the Angels into09Q0744 Abrahams bosome. And the riche man also died: and he vvas buried in hel.

23   And lifting vp his eies, vvhen he vvas in torments, he savv Abraham a farre of, note and Lazarus in his bosome:

24   and he crying said, Father Abraham, haue mercie on me, and send Lazarus that he may dippe the tippe of his finger into vvater, for to coole my tongue, because I am tormented in this flame.

25   And Abraham said to him, Sonne, remember that thou didst receiue note good things in thy life time, and Lazarus likevvise euil: but novv he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

26   And beside al these things, betvvene vs and you there is fixed09Q0745 a great note chaos: that they vvhich vvil passe from hence to you, may not, neither goe from thence hither.

27   And he said, Then, father, I beseeche thee that thou vvouldest send him vnto my fathers house, for I haue fiue brethren,

28   for to testifie vnto them,09Q0746 lest they also come into this place of torments.

29   And Abraham said to him, note They haue Moyses and the Prophets: let them heare them.

30   But he said, No, father Abraham, but if some man shal goe from the dead to them, they vvil doe penance.

31   And he said to him, If they heare not Moyses and the Prophets, neither if one shal rise againe from the dead, vvil they beleeue. &cross4;
