Mark 13:32-37
Legacy Standard Bible
32 (A)But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.
33 “See to it, (B)keep on the alert; for you do not know when the appointed time [a]will come. 34 (C)It is like a man away on a journey, who, leaving his house and giving authority to his slaves—each one his task, also commanded the doorkeeper to stay awake. 35 Therefore, (D)stay awake—for you do not know when the [b]master of the house is coming, whether in the evening, at midnight, or (E)when the rooster crows, or (F)in the morning— 36 lest he come suddenly and find you (G)sleeping. 37 And what I say to you I say to all, ‘(H)Stay awake!’”

The Necessity for Watchfulness
32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but only the Father.(A) 33 Beware, keep alert,[a] for you do not know when the time will come.(B) 34 It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his slaves in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to be on the watch.(C) 35 Therefore, keep awake, for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening or at midnight or at cockcrow or at dawn,(D) 36 or else he may find you asleep when he comes suddenly. 37 And what I say to you I say to all: Keep awake.”
