38 And, if, in the second, or if, in the third, watch, he come and find, thus, happy, are, they!
39 But, of this, be taking note––Had the householder known, in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not suffered his house, to be digged through.
40 Ye, therefore, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are not thinking, The Son of man cometh!
