In context

1 Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.

2 So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your management, for you cannot be manager any longer.’

3 The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too ashamed to beg.

4 I know what I will do, so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’
