Genesis 15:2But Abram replied, “O Lord GOD, what can You give me, since I remain childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?”Genesis 43:19So they approached Joseph’s steward and spoke to him at the entrance to the house.1 Chronicles 28:1Now David summoned all the leaders of Israel to Jerusalem: the leaders of the tribes, the leaders of the divisions in the king’s service, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and the officials in charge of all the property and cattle of the king and his sons, along with the court officials and mighty men—every mighty man of valor.Matthew 25:14For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions.Matthew 25:15To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent—each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey.Matthew 25:16The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put them to work and gained five more.Matthew 25:17Likewise, the one with the two talents gained two more.Matthew 25:18But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.Matthew 25:19After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.Matthew 25:20The servant who had received the five talents came and presented five more. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.’Matthew 25:21His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’Matthew 25:22The servant who had received the two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more.’Matthew 25:23His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’Matthew 25:24Finally, the servant who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed.Matthew 25:25So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what belongs to you.’Matthew 25:26‘You wicked, lazy servant!’ replied his master. ‘You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed.Matthew 25:27Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have received it back with interest.Matthew 25:28Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents.Matthew 25:29For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.Matthew 25:30And throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’Luke 8:3Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.Luke 12:35Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.Luke 12:36Then you will be like servants waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.Luke 12:37Blessed are those servants whom the master finds on watch when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and he himself will come and wait on them.Luke 12:38Even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night and finds them alert, those servants will be blessed.Luke 12:42And the Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their portion at the proper time?Luke 16:1Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.Luke 16:2So 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.’Luke 16:3The 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.Luke 16:4I know what I will do so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’Luke 16:5And he called in each one of his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked the first.Luke 16:6‘A hundred measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager, ‘sit down quickly, and write fifty.’Luke 16:7Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him.Luke 16:8The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.Luke 19:12So He said, “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to lay claim to his kingship and then return.Luke 19:13Beforehand, he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. ‘Conduct business with this until I return,’ he said.Luke 19:14But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We do not want this man to rule over us.’Luke 19:15When he returned from procuring his kingship, he summoned the servants to whom he had given the money, to find out what each one had earned.Luke 19:16The first servant came forward and said, ‘Master, your mina has produced ten more minas.’Luke 19:17His master replied, ‘Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a very small matter, you shall have authority over ten cities.’Luke 19:18The second servant came and said, ‘Master, your mina has made five minas.’Luke 19:19And to this one he said, ‘You shall have authority over five cities.’Luke 19:20Then another servant came and said, ‘Master, here is your mina, which I have laid away in a piece of cloth.Luke 19:21For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man. You withdraw what you did not deposit and reap what you did not sow.’Luke 19:22His master replied, ‘You wicked servant, I will judge you by your own words. So you knew that I am a harsh man, withdrawing what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow?Luke 19:23Why then did you not deposit my money in the bank, and upon my return I could have collected it with interest?’Luke 19:24Then he told those standing by, ‘Take the mina from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’Luke 19:25‘Master,’ they said, ‘he already has ten!’Luke 19:26He replied, ‘I tell you that everyone who has will be given more; but the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.Luke 19:27And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”1 Corinthians 4:1So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.1 Corinthians 4:2Now it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.Titus 1:7As God’s steward, an overseer must be above reproach—not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not greedy for money.1 Peter 4:10As good stewards of the manifold grace of God, each of you should use whatever gift he has received to serve one another.
