ylt @Luke:12:35 @'Let your loins be girded , and the lamps burning , ylt @Luke:12:36 @and ye like to men waiting for their lord , when he shall return out of the wedding feasts , that he having come and knocked , immediately they may open to him . ylt @Luke:12:37 @'Happy those servants , whom the lord , having come , shall find watching ; verily I say to you , that he will gird himself , and will cause them to recline (at meat ), and having come near , will minister to them ; ylt @Luke:12:38 @and if he may come in the second watch , and in the third watch he may come , and may find [it ] so , happy are those servants . ylt @Luke:12:39 @'And this know , that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief doth come , he would have watched , and would not have suffered his house to be broken through ; ylt @Luke:12:40 @and ye , then , become ye ready , because at the hour ye think not , the Son of Man doth come .' ylt @Luke:12:41 @And Peter said to him , 'Sir , unto us this simile dost thou speak , or also unto all ?' ylt @Luke:12:42 @And the Lord said , 'Who , then , is the faithful and prudent steward whom the lord shall set over his household , to give in season the wheat measure ? ylt @Luke:12:43 @Happy that servant , whom his lord , having come , shall find doing so ; ylt @Luke:12:44 @truly I say to you , that over all his goods he will set him . ylt @Luke:12:45 @'And if that servant may say in his heart , My lord doth delay to come , and may begin to beat the men-servants and the maid-servants , to eat also , and to drink , and to be drunken ; ylt @Luke:12:46 @the lord of that servant will come in a day in which he doth not look for [him ], and in an hour that he doth not know , and will cut him off , and his portion with the unfaithful he will appoint . ylt @Luke:12:47 @'And that servant , who having known his lord 's will , and not having prepared , nor having gone according to his will , shall be beaten with many stripes , ylt @Luke:12:48 @and he who , not having known , and having done things worthy of stripes , shall be beaten with few ; and to every one to whom much was given , much shall be required from him ; and to whom they did commit much , more abundantly they will ask of him .
