Luke 12:36-38
Lexham English Bible

36 And you, be like people who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast,[a] so that when he[b] comes back and knocks, they can open the door[c] for him immediately. 37 Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find on the alert when he returns! Truly I say to you that he will dress himself for service and have them recline at the table and will come by and[d] serve them. 38 Even if he should come back in the second or in the third watch of the night and find them[e] like this, blessed are they!
