12:41 Good and bad slaves

(Mat. 24:45-51)

41Then Peter asked, “Master, is that parable just for us, or is it for everyone?”

42The master answered, “So what would a faithful and wise slave be like, that the master might make into a manager over all his slaves, the one to give them their rations? 43That slave will be blessed when his master arrives and finds him doing everything he should. 44I can assure you all that the master will put him in charge of everything he owns. 45In contrast, if that slave thought to himself that the master might be away for a long time, he might start beating the slave boys and slave girls, and start ordering feasts, and drinking and getting drunk, 46then his master is sure to arrive when he’s not expecting him, and the master will give him a gruesome execution and he’ll be in hell with the unbelievers.

47Any slave who knows what their master wants, yet doesn’t get anything ready or start doing what’s wanted, they’ll get a good beating, 48yet a slave that didn’t know what was expected, even if they might have done things worthy of a beating, they’ll just get a couple of blows. Everyone who’s given much is expected to do much, and everyone who’s entrusted with many things, will have much more expected back from them.

41And the Petros said:
master, are_you_telling the this parable to us, or also to all?
42And the master said:
Who consequently is the faithful prudent manager the, whom the master will_be_appointing over the service of_him, which to_be_giving ration in season?
43Blessed is the that slave, whom the master of_him having_come, will_be_finding doing thus.
44Truly I_am_saying to_you_all that he_will_be_appointing him over all the things possessing of_him.
45But if the that slave may_say in the heart of_him, the master of_me Is_delaying to_be_coming, and may_begin to_be_striking the servant_boys and the servant_girls, to_be_eating and/both and to_be_drinking and to_be_being_drunk, 46the master of_ the that _slave will_be_coming in a_day which he_is_ not _expecting, and in an_hour which he_is_ not _knowing, and will_be_dismembering him, and will_be_appointing the portion of_him with the unbelievers.
47And that the slave, which having_known the will of_the master of_him, and not having_prepared or having_done for the will of_him, will_be_being_beat many blows, 48but the one not having_known, but having_done things worthy of_beatings, will_be_being_beat few blows.
And to_everyone to_whom was_given much, much will_be_being_sought from him, and to_whom they_entrusted they_will_be_requesting him much, more_abundantly.
