Luke 12:37-39

International Standard Version

³⁷ How blessed are those servants whom the master finds watching for him when he comes! I tell all of you^[a] with certainty, he himself will put on an apron, make them sit down at the table, and go around and serve them. ³⁸ How blessed they will be if their master^[b] comes in the middle of the night or near dawn^[c] and finds them awake!^{[d] 39} But be sure of this: if the homeowner had known at what time the thief were coming, he would have watched and^[e] would not have let his house be broken into.
