30. for all these things do the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that ye have need of these things;
31. but seek his kingdom, and all these things shall be added to you.
32. Fear not, little flock, for it has been the good pleasure of your Father to give you the kingdom.
33. Sell what ye possess and give alms; make to yourselves purses which do not grow old, a treasure which does not fail in the heavens, where thief does not draw near nor moth destroy.
34. For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.
35. Let your loins be girded about, and lamps burning;
36. and ye like men who wait their own lord whenever he may leave the wedding, that when he comes and knocks, they may open to him immediately.
37. Blessed are those bondmen whom the lord on coming shall find watching; verily I say unto you, that he will gird himself and make them recline at table, and coming up will serve them.
38. And if he come in the second watch, and come in the third watch, and find them thus, blessed are those bondmen.
39. But this know, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be dug through.
