40aThen two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.
41Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.
42aWatch therefore, for you do not know what1hour your Lord is coming.
43aBut know this, that if the master of the house had known what1hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.
44aTherefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
The Faithful Servant and the Evil Servant
45a“Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food1in due season?
46aBlessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing.
47Assuredly, I say to you that ahe will make him ruler over all his goods.
48But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master ais delaying his coming,’
49and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards,
50the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is anot aware of,
51and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. aThere shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
