Luke 12:45-47

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁴⁵ But if that servant says in his heart, My master is late in coming, and begins to strike the menservants and the maids and to eat and drink and get drunk,

⁴⁶ The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour of which he does not know, and will punish him and cut him off and assign his lot with ^[a]the unfaithful.

⁴⁷ And that servant who knew his master’s will but did not get ready or act as he would wish him to act shall be beaten with many [lashes].
