New American Standard Bible 1995
Luke 12:37-40
37Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find 1on the alert when he comes; truly I say to you, that 2he will gird himself to serve, and have them recline at the table, and will come up and wait on them. 383Whether he comes in the 4second watch, or even in the 5third, and finds them so, blessed are those slaves.
39“6But 7be sure of this, that if the head of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have allowed his house to be 89broken into. 4010You too, be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour that you do not 11expect.”
