:[[Mt 24:48]] But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
:[[Mt 24:49]] And shall begin to smite [his] fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
:[[Mt 24:50]] The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for [him], and in an hour that he is not aware of,
:[[Mt 24:51]] And shall cut him asunder, and appoint [him] his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
