وَكَالَة in a sentence

From a fully vowelled text

قَدْ عَلِمْتُ مَاذَا أَفْعَلُ، حَتَّى إِذَا عُزِلْتُ عَنِ الْوَكَالَةِ يَقْبَلُونِي فِي بُيُوتِهِمْ.I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.Luke 16:4, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَقَالَ الْوَكِيلُ فِي نَفْسِهِ: مَاذَا أَفْعَلُ؟ لأَنَّ سَيِّدِي يَأْخُذُ مِنِّي الْوَكَالَةَ. لَسْتُ أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَنْقُبَ، وَأَسْتَحِي أَنْ أَسْتَعْطِيَ.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.Luke 16:3, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
