Matthew 24:46-51

46 "Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes.

47 "Truly I say to you that ¹he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

48 "But if that evil slave says in his heart, 'My master is not coming for a long time,'

49 and begins to beat his fellow slaves and eat and drink with drunkards;

50 the master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour which he does not know,

51 and will cut him in pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites; in that place there will be ²weeping and gnashing of teeth.
