Matthew 24:44-51

44Therefore, you, too, must be ready because the Son of Man will return when you least expect him.

45“Who, then, is the faithful and wise servant? The master will put that person in charge of giving the other servants their food at the right time.

46That servant will be blessed if his master finds him doing this job when he comes.

47I can guarantee this truth: He will put that servant in charge of all his property.

48On the other hand, that servant, if he is wicked, may think that it will be a long time before his master comes.

49The servant may begin to beat the other servants and eat and drink with the drunks.

50His master will return unexpectedly.

51Then his master will severely punish him and assign him a place with the hypocrites. People will cry and be in extreme pain there.
