Mat 24:45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time?
Mat 24:46 Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing.
Mat 24:47 Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions.
Mat 24:48 But if that wicked servant says to himself, ‘My master is delayed,’
Mat 24:49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eats and drinks with the drunken,
Mat 24:50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know,
Mat 24:51 and will punish him, and put him with the hypocrites; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.
