36. “But concerning that day and the hour no one knows, not even the messengers of the heavens, but My Father only.
37. “And as the days of Noaḥ, so also shall the coming of the Son of Aḏam be.
38. “For as they were in the days before the flood, eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noaḥ entered into the ark,
39. and they did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also shall the coming of the Son of Aḏam be.
40. “Then two shall be in the field, the one is taken and the one is left.
41. “Two shall be grinding at the mill, one is taken and one is left.
42. “Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Master is coming.
43. “And know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.
44. “Because of this, be ready too, for the Son of Aḏam is coming at an hour when you do not expect Him.
45. “Who then is a trustworthy and wise servant, whom his master set over his household, to give them food in season?
46. “Blessed is that servant whom his master, having come, shall find so doing.
47. “Truly, I say to you that he shall set him over all his possessions.
48. “But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’
49. and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards,
50. the master of that servant shall come on a day when he does not expect it, and at an hour he does not know,
51. and shall cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites – there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
