Mark 13:32-37
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
But No One Knows The Day Or Hour, So Keep Watching
32 “But no one knows about that day or the hour— not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son— except the Father. 33 Be watching out, be keeping-alert, for you do not know when the time is. 34 It is like a man away-on-a-journey. Having left his house and having given authority to his slaves— to each[a] as to his work— he also commanded the doorkeeper that he should be keeping-watch. 35 Therefore, keep watching— for you do not know when the master of the house is coming, whether evening[b] or midnight or rooster-crowing or early-morning— 36 that having come suddenly, he may not find you sleeping. 37 And what I say to you I say to everyone: ‘Keep watching’”.
