Matthew 24:42-51
American Standard Version
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not on what day your Lord cometh. 43 [a]But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be [b]broken through. 44 Therefore be ye also ready; for in an hour that ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 Who then is the faithful and wise [c]servant, whom his lord hath set over his household, to give them their food in due season? 46 Blessed is that [d]servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47 Verily I say unto you, that he will set him over all that he hath. 48 But if that evil [e]servant shall say in his heart, My lord tarrieth; 49 and shall begin to beat his fellow-servants, and shall eat and drink with the drunken; 50 the lord of that [f]servant shall come in a day when he expecteth not, and in an hour when he knoweth not, 51 and shall [g]cut him asunder, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
