Luke 12:39-41

The Voice

³⁹ In contrast, imagine a complacent, apathetic household manager whose house gets robbed. If he had been aware that thieves were waiting in the bushes and what hour they were coming, [he would have watched and]^[a] he never would have left the house! ⁴⁰ I’m trying to tell you that these are times for alertness, times requiring a sense of urgency and intensity, because like the master in the first story or the thief in the second, the Son of Man shows up by surprise.

Peter: ⁴¹ Lord, I’m not sure if this parable is intended only for us disciples or if this is for everyone else too.
