[5:25]  1 tn Grk “Make friends.”

[5:25]  2 tn The words “to court” are not in the Greek text but are implied.

[5:25]  3 tn Grk “the accuser.”

[5:26]  4 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[5:26]  5 tn Here the English word “penny” is used as opposed to the parallel in Luke 12:59 where “cent” appears since the Greek word there is different and refers to a different but similar coin.
