Mark 13:32-37
World English Bible
32 But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you don’t know when the time is.
34 “It is like a man, traveling to another country, having left his house, and given authority to his servants, and to each one his work, and also commanded the doorkeeper to keep watch. 35 Watch therefore, for you don’t know when the lord of the house is coming, whether at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning; 36 lest coming suddenly he might find you sleeping. 37 What I tell you, I tell all: Watch.”

English Standard Version
No One Knows That Day or Hour
32 “But concerning that day or that hour, (A)no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, (B)nor the Son, (C)but only the Father. 33 (D)Be on guard, (E)keep awake.[a] For you do not know when the time will come. 34 (F)It is like a man (G)going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants[b] in charge, (H)each with his work, and commands (I)the doorkeeper to stay awake. 35 (J)Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, (K)in the evening, or (L)at midnight, or (M)when the rooster crows,[c] or (N)in the morning— 36 lest (O)he come suddenly and (P)find you asleep. 37 And what I say to you I say to all: (Q)Stay awake.”
