Luke 12:33-40

33Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Make money-bags for yourselves that won’t grow old, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.

34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

35“Be ready for service and have your lamps lit.

36You are to be like people waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.

37Blessed will be those servants the master finds alert when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will get ready, have them recline at the table, then come and serve them.

38If he comes in the middle of the night, or even near dawn, and finds them alert, blessed are those servants.

39But know this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.

40You also be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”
