Matthew 24:45-51

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁵ “Who is the wise and trusted servant? The master trusts one servant to give the other servants their food at the right time. ⁴⁶ When the master comes and finds the servant doing his work, the servant will be very happy. ⁴⁷ I tell you the truth. The master will choose that servant to take care of everything the master owns. ⁴⁸ But what will happen if the servant is evil and thinks his master will not come back soon? ⁴⁹ Then that servant will begin to beat the other servants. He will feast and get drunk with others like him. ⁵⁰ And the master will come when the servant is not ready and is not expecting him. ⁵¹ Then the master will punish that servant. He will send him away to be among the hypocrites. There people will cry and grind their teeth with pain.
