New Testament

Matthew 24:46-51 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

46. Servants are fortunate if their master comes and finds them doing their job.

47. You may be sure that a servant who is always faithful will be put in charge of everything the master owns.

48. But suppose one of the servants thinks that the master won't return until late.

49. Suppose that evil servant starts beating the other servants and eats and drinks with people who are drunk.

50. If that happens, the master will come on a day and at a time when the servant least expects him.

51. That servant will then be punished and thrown out with the ones who only pretended to serve their master. There they will cry and grit their teeth in pain.
