LUKE 12 V 48

[Patiently waiting for Truth]

Having looked up this scripture, Luke 12 v 48,  for another reason I noticed something slightly unusual 

Berean Study Bible
But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded

English Standard Version
But the one who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, will receive a light beating. Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.

Aramaic Bible in Plain English
But he who did not know and did something worthy of blows shall be beaten with few blows, for from everyone to whom much is given, much shall be required, and of him to whom they commit much, they shall require more.”

New American Standard 1977
but the one who did not know it, and committed deeds worthy of a flogging, will receive but few. And from everyone who has been given much shall much be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more.

New World Translation  

 But the one who did not understand and yet did things deserving of strokes will be beaten with few. Indeed, everyone to whom much was given, much will be demanded of him, and the one who was put in charge of much will have more than usual demanded of him.

Now it seems to me that to be 'entrusted with' means to take care of.  and to have something committed to you, would seem to mean be responsible for. 

But the GB decided in the NWT to use the idea of being put in charge of. Was this to enforce their own idea of 'being in charge' ?  Lording it over instead of 'taking care of' the congregation.
