Luke 12:35-40

35BeG1510 dressed for serviceG4771G3588G3751G4024 and keepG2532 your lampsG3088 burningG2545. 36ThenG2532 youG4771 will be likeG3664 servants waiting forG4327 theirG1438 masterG2962 to returnG360 fromG1537 theG3588 wedding banquetG1062, so thatG2443 when he comesG2064 andG2532 knocksG2925, they can openG455 the door for himG846 at onceG2112. 37BlessedG3107 are thoseG1565 servantsG1401 whomG3739 theG3588 masterG2962 findsG2147 on watchG1127 when he returnsG2064. TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, he will dress himself to serveG4024 andG2532G846 will have them recline at the tableG347, andG2532 he himself will comeG3928 and wait onG1247 themG846. 38Even ifG2579 he comesG2064 inG1722 theG3588 secondG1208 orG2579 thirdG5154 watch of the nightG54381 andG2532 findsG2147 them alertG3779, thoseG1565 servants will beG1510 blessedG3107.

39ButG1161 understandG1097 thisG3778: IfG1487 theG3588 homeownerG3617 had knownG1492 at whatG4169 hourG5610 theG3588 thiefG2812 was comingG2064,2 he would not have letG3756G302G863 hisG846 houseG3624 be broken intoG1358. 40YouG4771 alsoG2532 must beG1096 readyG2092, becauseG3754 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 will comeG2064 at anG3739 hourG5610 you do not expectG3756G1380.”
