And the steward said within himself, What shall I do, seeing that my lord taketh away the stewardship from me? I have not strength to dig; to beg I am ashamed.

And the servant said to himself, What am I to do now that my lord takes away my position? I have not enough strength for working in the fields, and I would be shamed if I made requests for money from people in the streets.

Ειπε δε καθ' εαυτον ο οικονομος· Τι να καμω, επειδη ο κυριος μου αφαιρει απ' εμου την οικονομιαν; να σκαπτω δεν δυναμαι, να ζητω εντρεπομαι·

Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
