Matthew 24:38-51
38For as in thoseG1565 daysG2250 beforeG4253 the floodG2627 they were eatingG5176 and drinkingG4095, 1marryingG1060 and givingG1061 inG1061 marriageG1061, untilG891 the dayG2250 that 2NoahG3575 enteredG1525 the arkG2787, 39and they did not 3understandG1097 untilG2193 the floodG2627 cameG2064 and tookG142 them allG537 awayG142; soG3779 will the 4comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of ManG444 be. 40AtG5119 thatG5119 timeG5119 there will be twoG1417 men in the fieldG68; oneG1520 5will be takenG3880 and oneG1520 6will be leftG863. 417TwoG1417 women will be grindingG229 at the 89millG3458; oneG1520 10will be takenG3880 and oneG1520 11will be leftG863.
42“ThereforeG3767 12be on the alertG1127, for you do not knowG3609 whichG4169 dayG2250 your LordG2962 is comingG2064. 43But 13be sureG1097 of thisG1565, that 14ifG1487 the headG3617 ofG3617 theG3617 houseG3617 had knownG3609 15at whatG4169 timeG5438 ofG5438 theG5438 nightG5438 the thiefG2812 was comingG2064, he would have been on the alertG1127 and would not have allowedG1439 his houseG3614 to be brokenG1358 into. 44For thisG3778 reasonG1223 16you must be readyG2092 asG2532 wellG2532; for 17the SonG5207 of ManG444 is comingG2064 at an hourG5610 whenG3739 you do not thinkG1380 He will.
45“18WhoG5101 thenG686 is the 19faithfulG4103 and 20sensibleG5429 slaveG1401 whomG3739 his 21masterG2962 22putG2525 inG2525 chargeG2525 of his householdG3610 slavesG3610, to giveG1325 them their foodG5160 at the properG2540 timeG2540? 46BlessedG3107 is that slaveG1401 whomG3739 his 23masterG2962 findsG2147 soG3779 doingG4160 when he comesG2064. 47TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you that 24he will putG2525 him inG2525 chargeG2525 of allG3956 his possessionsG5225. 48But ifG1437 that evilG2556 slaveG1401 saysG3004 in his heartG2588, ‘My 25masterG2962 26isG5549 notG5549 comingG5549 forG5549 aG5549 longG5549 timeG5549,’ 49and he beginsG757 to beatG5180 his fellowG4889 slavesG4889, and he eatsG2068 and drinksG4095 with those habituallyG3184 drunkG3184; 50then the 27masterG2962 of that slaveG1401 will comeG2240 on a dayG2250 that he does not expectG4328, and at an hourG5610 that he does not knowG1097, 51and he will 28cutG1371 him inG1371 twoG1371 and assignG5087 29him a placeG3313 with the hypocritesG5273; inG1563 thatG1563 placeG1563 there will be 30weepingG2805 and gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.
