Matthew 25:13

James Moffatt - New Testament

Keep on the watch then, for you know neither the day nor the hour.

See the chapter Copy

Well then, we must not sleep like the rest of men, but be wakeful and sober;

(Lo, I am coming like a thief; blessed be he who keeps awake and holds his raiment fast, not to go naked and have the shame of exposure!)

From hour to hour keep awake, praying that you may succeed in escaping all these dangers to come and in standing before the Son of man."

Watch, stand firm in the faith, play the man, be strong!

Keep cool, keep awake. Your enemy the devil prowls like a roaring lion, looking out for someone to devour.

that servant's lord and master will arrive on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour which he does not know;

Now the end of all is near. Steady then, keep cool and pray!

Whatever happens, be self-possessed, flinch from no suffering, do your work as an evangelist, and discharge all your duties as a minister.

So be on the alert, remember how for three whole years I never ceased night and day to watch over each one of you with tears.

but he replied, 'I tell you frankly, I do not know you.'
