noyes Luke:12:35-48
noyes@Luke:12:35 @ Let your loins be girded about, and your lamps burning;
noyes@Luke:12:36 @ and be yourselves like men waiting for the return of their lord from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open to him immediately.
noyes@Luke:12:37 @ Happy are those servants, whom their lord when he cometh shall find watching; truly do I say to you, that he will gird himself, and place them at table, and will come and wait on them.
noyes@Luke:12:38 @ And if in the second, or if in the third watch, he cometh and findeth them thus, happy are they.
noyes@Luke:12:39 @ And be sure of this, that if the master of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have suffered his house to be broken through.
noyes@Luke:12:40 @ Be ye also ready; for at an hour when ye think not the Son of man cometh.
noyes@Luke:12:41 @ And Peter said to him, Lord, dost thou speak this parable to us, or also to all?
noyes@Luke:12:42 @ And the Lord said, Who then is the faithful, the wise steward, whom his lord will place over his household, to give the portion of food in due season?
noyes@Luke:12:43 @ Happy is that servant whom his lord, when he cometh, shall find so doing.
noyes@Luke:12:44 @ I say to you in truth, that he will place him in charge of all his substance.
noyes@Luke:12:45 @ But if that servant say in his heart, My lord is long in coming; and begin to beat the menservants and maidservants, and to eat and drink and be drunken,
noyes@Luke:12:46 @ 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 asunder, and appoint him his portion with the unfaithful.
noyes@Luke:12:47 @ And that servant who knew his lords will, and did not make ready, nor do according to his will, will be beaten with many stripes;
noyes@Luke:12:48 @ but he that knew not and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few. And from every one to whom much hath been given, will much be required; and to whom much hath been entrusted, of him will the more be demanded.
