⁴⁵ “^(A)Who then is the ^(B)faithful and ^(C)sensible slave whom his ^[a]master ^(D)put in charge of his household slaves, to give them their food at the proper time? ⁴⁶ Blessed is that slave whom his ^[b]master finds so doing when he comes. ⁴⁷ Truly I say to you that ^(E)he will put him in charge of all his possessions. ⁴⁸ But if that evil slave says in his heart, ‘My ^[c]master ^[d]is not coming for a long time,’ ⁴⁹ and he begins to beat his fellow slaves, and he eats and drinks with those habitually drunk; ⁵⁰ then the ^[e]master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect, and at an hour that he does not know, ⁵¹ and he will ^[f]cut him in two and assign ^[g]him a place with the hypocrites; in that place there will be ^(F)weeping and gnashing of teeth.

⁴ he is ^(A)conceited and understands nothing; but he ^[a]has a sick craving for ^(B)controversial questions and ^(C)disputes about words, from which come envy, strife, abusive language, evil suspicions, ⁵ and constant friction between ^(D)people of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who ^(E)suppose that ^[b]godliness is a means of gain.
