Luke 12:35-37

New American Standard Bible 1995

Be in Readiness

³⁵ “^[a](A)Be dressed in ^(B)readiness, and keep your lamps lit. ³⁶ Be like men who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that they may immediately open the door to him when he comes and knocks. ³⁷ Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find ^(C)on the alert when he comes; truly I say to you, that ^(D)he will gird himself to serve, and have them recline at the table, and will come up and wait on them.
