He would not have let the thief break into his house. ⁴⁴Therefore, you, too, must be ready because the Son of Man will return when you least expect him.

⁴⁵“Who, then, is the faithful and wise servant? The master will put that person in charge of giving the other servants their food at the right time. ⁴⁶That servant will be blessed if his master finds him doing this job when he comes. ⁴⁷I can guarantee this truth: He will put that servant in charge of all his property. ⁴⁸On the other hand, that servant, if he is wicked, may think that it will be a long time before his master comes. ⁴⁹The servant may begin to beat the other servants and eat and drink with the drunks. ⁵⁰His master will return unexpectedly. ⁵¹Then his master will severely punish him and assign him a place with the hypocrites. People will cry and be in extreme pain there.
