Matthew 24:43-45

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴³ You can be sure about this. The master of a house does not know at what time of night a man would come to rob him. If he knew the time, he would watch his house more carefully. He would not let the robber come into his house and take away his things. ⁴⁴ So you must also be ready. The Son of Man will come at a time when you are not thinking about it.’

Jesus tells a story about two servants

⁴⁵ Jesus then said, ‘You should be like a wise servant. Be someone that the master can trust. The master will choose a man like that. He will say to him, “Rule over my house and all my other servants. Give everyone their food to eat at the right time.”
