Luke 12:32–59
32 nFear not, olittle flock; for pit is your Father’s good pleasure to give you qthe kingdom. 33 rSell that ye have, and sgive alms; tprovide yourselves ubags which wax not old, xa treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither xmoth corrupteth. 34 yFor where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 zLet your loins be girded about, and ayour lights burning; 36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will breturn from cthe wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. 37 dBlessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find ewatching: verily I say unto you, that he shall fgird himself, and gmake them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. 38 And if he shall come in the hsecond watch, or come in the hthird watch, and dfind them so, blessed are those servants. 39 iAnd this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have ewatched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. 40 Be ye therefore jready also: kfor the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable lunto us, or even mto all? 42 And the Lord said,
Who then is that faithful and wise nsteward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season? 43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath. 45 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; 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 in sunder, and will appoint him his oportion with the unbelievers. 47 And pthat servant, which knew his lord’s will, and jprepared not himself, neither did according to his will, qshall be beaten with many stripes. 48 pBut he rthat knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, sshall be beaten with few stripes. tFor unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom umen have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
49 I am come to send wfire on the earth; xand what will I, if it be already kindled? 50 But I have ya baptism to be baptized with; and zhow am I ||astraitened btill it be accomplished! 51 cSuppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather wdivision: 52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. 53 The father shall be divided against the son, and dthe son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
54 And he said also to the people, eWhen ye see fa cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is. 55 And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be gheat; and it cometh to pass. 56 hYe hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time? 57 Yea, and why even iof yourselves judge ye not what is right? 58 kWhen thou goest lwith thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison. 59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last ||mite.
