Luke 16:13 In-Context

11 So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?

12 And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?

13 No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all of this and were scoffing at Jesus.

15 So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God.
