Revised Version 1895
Luke 12:35-50
35LetG1510 yourG2532 loinsG3751 beG1510 girdedG4024 aboutG3588, andG2532 yourG2532 lampsG3088 burningG2545;
36andG2532 beG2532 ye yourselvesG1438 likeG3664 unto menG444 lookingG4327 forG2443 theirG846 lordG2962, whenG2532 heG2532 shallG444 return fromG1537 theG3588 marriageG1062 feastG1062; thatG2443, whenG2532 heG2532 cometh andG2532 knocketh, theyG846 mayG2532 straightway openG455 unto himG846.
37BlessedG3107 are thoseG3588 servantsG1401, whomG3739 theG3588 lordG2962 whenG2532 heG2532 cometh shallG2532 findG2147 watchingG1127: verily IG3739 sayG3004 unto youG5210, thatG3754 heG2532 shallG2532 girdG4024 himselfG846, andG2532 makeG4024 themG846 sitG347 downG347 toG3004 meatG3588, andG2532 shallG2532 comeG2064 andG2532 serveG1247 themG846.
38AndG2532 ifG2579 heG2532 shallG2532 comeG2064 inG1722 theG3588 secondG1208 watchG5438, andG2532 ifG2579 inG1722 theG3588 thirdG5154, andG2532 findG2147 themG2147 soG2532, blessedG3107 areG1510 thoseG3588 servants.
39ButG1161 knowG1097 thisG3778, thatG3754 ifG1487 theG3588 master ofG3624 theG3588 houseG3624 had knownG1097 inG2064 whatG4169 hourG5610 theG3588 thiefG2812 was comingG2064, heG846 wouldG302 have watched, andG1161 notG3756 have leftG863 hisG846 houseG3624 toG2064 beG3778 brokenG1358 through.
40BeG1096 ye alsoG2532 readyG2092: forG3754 inG2532 anG1096 hourG5610 thatG3754 ye thinkG1380 notG3756 theG3588 SonG5207 ofG5207 manG444 cometh.
41AndG2532 PeterG4074 saidG3004, LordG2962, speakest thou thisG3778 parableG3850 unto usG3004, orG2228 evenG2532 unto allG3956?
42AndG2532 theG3588 LordG2962 saidG3004, WhoG3739 thenG2532 isG1510 theG3588 faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 stewardG3623, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 shallG2532 setG2525 overG1909 hisG846 household, toG3004 giveG1325 themG846 theirG846 portion ofG2962 food inG1722 due seasonG2540?
43BlessedG3107 is thatG3739 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 whenG2064 heG846 cometh shallG2962 findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160.
44OfG1909 a truth IG3754 sayG3004 unto youG5210, thatG3754 heG846 willG3956 setG2525 himG846 overG1909 allG3956 thatG3754 heG846 hath.
45ButG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 servantG3816 shallG2532 sayG3004 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG1722 lordG2962 delayeth hisG846 comingG2064; andG2532 shallG2532 beginG756 toG3004 beatG5180 theG3588 menservants andG2532 theG3588 maidservants, andG2532 toG3004 eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095, andG2532 toG3004 beG2532 drunken;
46theG3588 lordG2962 ofG2250 thatG3739 servantG1401 shallG2532 comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG2532 heG2532 expecteth notG3756, andG2532 inG1722 anG2532 hourG5610 whenG2532 heG2532 knoweth notG3756, andG2532 shallG2532 cutG1371 himG846 asunder, andG2532 appoint hisG846 portionG3313 withG3326 theG3588 unfaithful.
47AndG2532 thatG1565 servantG1401, whichG3588 knewG1097 hisG846 lord’sG2962 willG2307, andG2532 madeG4160 notG3361 readyG2090, norG2532 didG4160 accordingG4314 toG4314 hisG846 willG2307, shallG2532 beG2532 beatenG1194 withG4314 manyG4183 stripes;
48butG1161 heG2532 thatG3739 knewG1097 notG3361, andG2532 didG4160 thingsG3956 worthyG514 ofG3956 stripes, shallG2532 beG2532 beatenG1194 withG3844 fewG3641 stripes. AndG2532 toG2212 whomsoever muchG4183 is givenG1325, ofG3956 himG846 shallG2532 muchG4183 beG2532 required: andG2532 toG2212 whomG3739 theyG846 commitG4160 muchG4183, ofG3956 himG846 willG3739 theyG846 askG154 theG3956 moreG4183.
49IG2532 cameG2064 toG2309 castG906 fireG4442 uponG1909 theG3588 earthG1093; andG2532 whatG5101 willG5101 IG2532, ifG1487 itG2532 is alreadyG2235 kindledG381?
50ButG1161 IG2532 have a baptismG908 toG2193 beG2532 baptizedG907 withG2532; andG2532 howG4459 amG2192 IG2532 straitened till itG1161 beG2532 accomplishedG5055!
