\v 8 When his master heard what the manager had done, he admired the dishonest manager for the clever thing he had done. The truth is that the ungodly people in this world act more cleverly toward other people than godly people act.
\v 9 So I tell you this: Use the money that you have here on earth to help others so that they will become your friends. Then when you die, they will welcome you into an eternal home.

\v 9 I tell you, use the money you made dishonestly to help others. When you do, they will become your friends, and when the money is gone, you will have friends who will welcome you into your eternal home.
