37Happy are those servants whom, on his return, the Master will find watching. I tell you that he will make himself ready, and have them take their places at the table, and will come and serve them.
38Whether it is late at night, or in the early morning that he comes, if he finds all as it should be, then happy are they.
39This you do know, that, had the owner of the house known at what time the thief was coming, he would have been on the watch, and would not have let his house be broken into.
40You must also prepare, for when you are least expecting him the Son of Man will come.”
41“Master,” said Peter, “are you telling this parable with reference to us or to everyone?”
42“Who, then,” replied the Master, “is that trustworthy steward, the careful man, who will be placed by his master over his establishment, to give them their rations at the proper time?
43Happy will that servant be whom his master, when he comes home, will find doing this.
44His master, I tell you, will put him in charge of the whole of his property.
