Luke 12:39-46
39ButG1161 understandG1097 thisG3778: IfG1487 theG3588 homeownerG3617 had knownG1492 at whatG4169 hourG5610 theG3588 thiefG2812 was comingG2064,1 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.”
41“LordG2962,” saidG2036 PeterG4074, “are You addressingG3004 thisG3778 parableG3850 toG4314 usG1473, orG2228 toG4314 everyone elseG3956 as wellG2532?”
42AndG2532 theG3588 LordG2962 answeredG2036, “WhoG5101 thenG686 isG1510 theG3588 faithfulG4103 and wiseG5429 managerG3623, whomG3739 theG3588 masterG2962 putsG2525 in chargeG2322 ofG1909 hisG846 servants to giveG1325 them their portionG4620 atG1722 the proper timeG2540? 43BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG1401 whoseG3739 masterG2962 findsG2147 him doingG4160 soG3779 when he returnsG2064. 44TrulyG230 I tellG3004 youG4771, he will put him in chargeG2525G846 ofG1909 allG3956 hisG846 possessionsG5225.
45ButG1161 supposeG1437 thatG1565 servantG1401 saysG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, ‘MyG1473 masterG2962 will be a long timeG5549 in comingG2064,’ andG2532 he beginsG756 to beatG5180 theG3588 menservantsG3816 andG2532 maidservantsG3814, andG5037 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095 andG2532 get drunkG3182. 46TheG3588 masterG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 will comeG2240 onG1722 a dayG2250 he does not expectG3739G3756G4328 andG2532 atG1722 an hourG5610 he does not anticipateG3739G3756G1097. ThenG2532 he will cut him to piecesG1371G846 andG2532 assignG5087 himG846 aG3588 placeG3313 withG3326 theG3588 unbelieversG571.
