Luke 12:35-48
35LetG1510 yourG4771 loinsG3588G3751 beG1510 girded aboutG4024, andG2532 your lightsG3588G3088 burningG2545; 36AndG2532 ye yourselvesG4771 likeG3664 unto menG444 that waitG4327 forG3588G2962 theirG1438 lordG3588G2962, whenG4219 he will returnG360 fromG1537 the weddingG3588G1062; thatG2443 when he comethG2064 andG2532 knockethG2925, they may openG455 unto himG846 immediatelyG2112. 37BlessedG3107 are thoseG1565 servantsG3588G1401, whomG3739 the lordG3588G2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 watchingG1127: verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, thatG3754 he shall gird himselfG4024, andG2532 makeG347 themG846 to sit down to meatG347, andG2532 will come forthG3928 and serveG1247 themG846. 38AndG2532 ifG1437 he shall comeG2064 inG1722 theG5438 secondG1208 watchG5438, orG2532 comeG2064 inG1722 theG5438 thirdG5154 watchG5438, andG2532 findG2147 them soG3779, blessedG3107 areG1510 thoseG1565 servantsG3588G1401. 39AndG1161 thisG3778 knowG1097, thatG3754 ifG1487 the goodman of the houseG3588G3617 had knownG1492 whatG4169 hourG5610 the thiefG3588G2812 would comeG2064, he would have watchedG1127, andG2532 notG3756 have sufferedG863 hisG846 houseG3588G3624 to be broken throughG1358. 40BeG1096 yeG4771 thereforeG3767 readyG2092 alsoG2532: forG3754 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 comethG2064 at an hourG5610 whenG3739 ye thinkG1380 notG3756.
41ThenG1161 PeterG3588G4074 saidG3004 unto himG846, LordG2962, speakest thouG3004 thisG3778 parableG3588G3850 untoG4314 usG1473, orG2228 evenG2532 toG4314 allG3956? 42AndG1161 the LordG3588G2962 saidG3004, WhoG5101 thenG687 isG1510 thatG3623 faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 stewardG3623, whomG3739 his lordG3588G2962 shall make rulerG2525 overG1909 hisG846 householdG3588G2322, to giveG1325 them their portion of meatG3588G4620 inG1722 due seasonG2540? 43BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG3588G1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG3588G2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160. 44Of a truthG230 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, thatG3754 he will makeG2525 himG846 rulerG2525 overG1909 allG3956 thatG5225 heG846 hathG5225. 45But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 servantG3588G1401 sayG3004 inG1722 hisG846 heartG3588G2588, MyG1473 lordG3588G2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064; andG2532 shall beginG756 to beatG5180 the menservantsG3588G3816 andG2532 maidensG3588G3814, andG5037 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095, andG2532 to be drunkenG3182; 46The lordG3588G2962 ofG3588G1401 thatG1565 servantG3588G1401 will comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 forG4328 him, andG2532 atG1722 an hourG5610 whenG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 awareG1097, andG2532 will cutG1371 himG846 in sunderG1371, andG2532 will appoint himG5087 hisG846 portionG3588G3313 withG3326 the unbelieversG571. 47AndG1161 thatG1565 servantG3588G1401, which knewG1097 hisG1438 lord’sG3588G2962 willG3588G2307, andG2532 preparedG2090 notG3361 himself, neitherG3366 didG4160 according toG4314 hisG846 willG3588G2307, shall be beatenG1194 with manyG4183 stripes. 48ButG1161 he that knewG1097 notG3361, andG1161 did commitG4160 things worthyG514 of stripesG4127, shall be beatenG1194 with fewG3641 stripes. ForG1161 unto whomsoeverG3956 muchG4183 is givenG1325, ofG3844 himG846 shall beG2212 muchG4183 requiredG2212: andG2532 to whomG3739 men have committedG3908 muchG4183, of himG846 they will askG154 the moreG4053.
