Peter asked, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everyone?”
What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’ ”
Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Simon,” he said to Peter, “are you asleep? Couldn’t you keep watch for one hour?
“The servant who knows the master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what the master wants will be beaten with many blows.
But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.
The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray.
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
