Luke 12:39-46

39“1But 2be sureG1097 of thisG3778, that ifG1487 the headG3617 ofG3617 theG3617 houseG3617 had knownG3609 at whatG4169 hourG5610 the thiefG2812 was comingG2064, he would not have allowedG863 his houseG3624 to be 3brokenG1358 into. 404You tooG2532, be readyG2092; becauseG3754 the SonG5207 of ManG444 is comingG2064 at an hourG5610 that you do not thinkG1380 He will.”

41PeterG4074 saidG3004, “LordG2962, are You tellingG3004 thisG3778 parableG3850 to us, orG2228 5to everyoneG3956 else asG2532 wellG2532?” 42And 6the LordG2962 saidG3004, “7WhoG5101 thenG686 is the faithfulG4103 and sensibleG5429 8stewardG3623, whomG3739 his masterG2962 will putG2525 inG2525 chargeG2525 of his servantsG2322, to giveG1325 them their rationsG4620 at the properG2540 timeG2540? 43BlessedG3107 is that 9slaveG1401 whomG3739 his 10masterG2962 findsG2147 soG3779 doingG4160 when he comesG2064. 44TrulyG230 I sayG3004 to you that he will putG2525 him inG2525 chargeG2525 of allG3956 his possessionsG5225. 45But ifG1437 that slaveG1401 saysG3004 in his heartG2588, ‘My masterG2962 will takeG5549 aG5549 longG5549 timeG5549 to comeG2064,’ and he beginsG757 to beatG5180 the other slavesG3814G3816, both menG3816 and womenG3814, and to eatG2068 and drinkG4095 and getG3182 drunkG3182; 46then the masterG2962 of that slaveG1401 will comeG2240 on a dayG2250 that he does not expectG4328, and at an hourG5610 that he does not knowG1097, and will 11cutG1371 him inG1371 twoG1371, and assignG5087 12him a placeG3313 with the unbelieversG571.
