Matthew 24:36-44

Legacy Standard Bible

³⁶ “But ^(A)of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. ³⁷ For ^(B)just as the days of Noah were, so the ^(C)coming of the Son of Man will be. ³⁸ For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, ^(D)marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that ^(E)Noah entered the ark, ³⁹ and they did not ^[a]understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the ^(F)coming of the Son of Man be. ⁴⁰ Then there will be two in the field; one ^[b]will be taken, and one ^[c]will be left. ^41 (G)Two women will be grinding grain at the ^[d](H)mill; one ^[e]will be taken and one ^[f]will be left.

Be Ready for His Coming

⁴² “Therefore ^(I)stay awake, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming. ⁴³ But ^[g]be sure of this, that ^(J)if the head of the house had known ^(K)at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have allowed his house to be ^[h]broken into. ⁴⁴ For this reason ^(L)you also must be ready; for ^(M)the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will.
