Ef God dress op de wile grass like dat, fa true e gwine do way mo den dat fa mek sho oona hab cloes fa weah. Sho nuff oona ain bleebe God wid all oona haat!

²⁹Mus dohn fret yasef bout wa ya gwine nyam an wa ya gwine drink. Mus dohn warry bout um tall.

³⁰De people dat ain bleebe pon God, dey da warry all de time bout dem ting. Bot God oona Fada, an e know oona haffa hab sompin fa nyam an drink an cloes fa weah.

³⁶Oona mus stan like a wokman wa da wait fa de man e da wok fa fa come back fom a marry feas. E da wait so dat wensoneba e massa come home an knock, e ready an kin open de door fa um.

³⁹Oona mus know dat ef de man wa own a house been know wen de tief gwine come ta um, dat man ain gwine sleep. E ain gwine lef e house. E gwine stay dey, an de tief ain gwine broke een an go eenside.

⁴⁰Same fashion, oona too mus be ready all de time. Cause de Man wa Come fom God gwine come back ta dis wol wen oona da tink say, ‘E ain da come now.’ ”

⁴¹Peter aks Jedus say, “Lawd, dis paable dat ya jes tell, ya tell dat fa we or fa all de people?”

⁴²De Lawd ansa say, “Who dat wokman wa got plenty sense an wa true ta de man e da wok fa? E de one dat de bossman gwine gii chaage oba all dem een e house wen de bossman gwine off. De bossman chaage dat wokman fa sho de oda wokman dem all de ting dem dey fa do. An dat wokman een chaage gwine wide op de food fa dem fa nyam wen e spose.

⁴³Dat wokman gwine be bless fa true, wen de bossman come home, ef e find um da do dem ting wa e done tell um fa do.

⁴⁴A da tell oona fa true, de bossman gwine gim chaage oba all e propaty an ting.

⁴⁵Bot wa gwine happen ef dat wokman een chaage tink say, ‘Fa long time now, me bossman ain come back.’ Den e staat fa beat op pon all dem man an ooman. An de wokman een chaage jes da nyam an drink an git dronk.

⁴⁶Ef dat wokman een chaage ain do wa e spose fa do an e treat de oda wokman dem bad, one day e bossman gwine come back home wen dat wokman ain spect um. De bossman gwine whip dat wokman too bad. E gwine mek um suffa jes like de people dat ain bleebe God.

⁴⁷“De wokman dat know wa e bossman wahn um fa do, bot e ain git esef ready an e ain do um, e gwine git whip good fashion.
