and they knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall be the coming of the Son of man.

two women [shall be] grinding at the mill; one is taken, and one is left.

But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken through.

Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

Verily I say unto you, that he will set him over all that he hath.
