No One Knows the Day or Hour

³² “Now concerning that day^(A) or hour no one knows—neither the angels^(B) in heaven nor the Son^(C)—except the Father.^{(D) 33} Watch! Be alert!^[a] For you don’t know when the time^(E) is coming.^{(F) 34} It is like^(G) a man on a journey, who left his house, gave authority to his slaves,^(H) gave each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to be alert. ³⁵ Therefore be alert,^(I) since you don’t know when the master^(J) of the house is coming—whether in the evening or at midnight or at the crowing of the rooster or early in the morning. ³⁶ Otherwise, he might come suddenly and find you sleeping.^{(K) 37} And what I say to you, I say to everyone: Be alert!”
