37Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them sit down to meat, and shall come and serve them.

38And if he shall come in the second watch, and if in the third, and find [them] so blessed are those [servants].

39But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not have left his house to be broken through.

40Be ye also ready: for in an hour that ye think not the Son of man cometh.

41And Peter said, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even unto all?
