3As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?”

47Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.

50the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn’t expect it and in an hour when he doesn’t know it,
