Japanese Living Bible
41 ペテロが、いぶかしげに尋ねました。「主よ。今のお話は、私たちにだけ話されたのですか。それとも、ここにいるみんなのためなのですか。」 42-44 イエスは、お答えになりました。「では、こう言えばわかるでしょうか。主人の留守中、ほかの召使たちの面倒を見る責任を負わされた、忠実で賢い人たちに話しているのです。主人が戻った時、かいがいしく働いているところを見られるなら、ほんとうに幸いです。主人から全財産を任されることになるでしょう。 45 ところが、『主人はまだまだお帰りになるまい』とたかをくくり、召使たちを打ちたたき、食べたり飲んだりしていたらどうでしょう。 46 主人は出し抜けに帰って来て、この有様を見ます。不届き者は、責任ある地位からはずされ、不忠実な者と同じ仕事につけられるのでしょう。 47 自分の義務を心得ながら、果たそうとしなかった罰です。 48 しかし、自分でも気がつかないうちに悪いことをした人の罰は、軽くてすみます。だれでも多く与えられた者は多く求められ、多く任された者は多く要求されるのです。

Luke 12:41-48
New International Version
41 Peter asked, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everyone?”
42 The Lord(A) answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their food allowance at the proper time? 43 It will be good for that servant whom the master finds doing so when he returns. 44 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 45 But suppose the servant says to himself, ‘My master is taking a long time in coming,’ and he then begins to beat the other servants, both men and women, and to eat and drink and get drunk. 46 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of.(B) He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.
47 “The servant who knows the master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what the master wants will be beaten with many blows.(C) 48 But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows.(D) From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.

41 Peter said, “Lord, (A)are you telling this parable for us or for all?” 42 And the Lord said, “Who then is (B)the faithful and (C)wise (D)manager, whom his master will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the proper time? 43 (E)Blessed is that servant[a] whom his master will find so doing when he comes. 44 Truly, I say to you, (F)he will set him over all his possessions. 45 But if that servant says to himself, ‘My master (G)is delayed in coming,’ and begins to beat the male and female servants, and to eat and drink and (H)get drunk, 46 the master of that servant will come (I)on a day when he does not expect him and (J)at an hour he does not know, and will cut him in pieces and put him with the unfaithful. 47 (K)And that servant who (L)knew his master's will but (M)did not get ready (N)or act according to his will, will receive a (O)severe beating. 48 (P)But the one who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, (Q)will receive a light beating. (R)Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.

Luke 12:41-48
King James Version
41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?
42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.
45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
