Luke:12:42-48

*
And the Lord said ,
Who then is that faithful and wise steward ,
whom his lord shall make ruler over his household ,
to give them their portion of meat in due season ?
*
Blessed is that servant ,
whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing .
*
Of a truth I say unto you ,
that he will make him ruler over all that he hath .
*
But and if that servant say in his heart ,
My lord delayeth his coming ;
and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens ,
and to eat and drink ,
and to be drunken ;
*
The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him ,
and at an hour when he is not aware ,
and will cut him in sunder ,
and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers .
*
And that servant ,
which knew his lord '
s will ,
and prepared not himself ,
neither did according to his will ,
shall be beaten with many stripes .
*
But he that knew not ,
and did commit things worthy of stripes ,
shall be beaten with few stripes .
For unto whomsoever much is given ,
of him shall be much required :
and to whom men have committed much ,
of him they will ask the more .
