Luke 12:38

Good News Translation

How happy they are if he finds them ready, even if he should come at midnight or even later!

See the chapter Copy

If the owner of a house knew the time when the thief would come, you can be sure that he would stay awake and not let the thief break into his house.

“It was already midnight when the cry rang out, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come and meet him!’

And you can be sure that if the owner of a house knew the time when the thief would come, he would not let the thief break into his house.
