Exegesis
The neuter substantive to alēthinon {τὸ ἀληθινὸν | tó a-lē-thi-nón} ‘the true’ stands elliptically against mammon, and the interrogative pronoun tis {τίς | tís} introduces a rhetorical question with the dative humin {ὑμῖν | hu-mîn} marking the beneficiary and the future verb pisteusei {πιστεύσει | pis-teú-sei} in the apodosis underscoring the conditional promise of greater trust.
In context — Luke 16:11
If therefore you were not faithful with the unrighteous mammon , who will entrust to you the true riches ?
