40 Entonces estarán dos en el campo; el uno será tomado, y el otro será dejado:

41 Dos mujeres moliendo á un molinillo; la una será tomada, y la otra será dejada.

42 Velad pues, porque no sabéis á qué hora ha de venir vuestro Señor.

43 Esto empero sabed, que si el padre de la familia supiese á cuál vela el ladrón había de venir, velaría, y no dejaría minar su casa.

44 Por tanto, también vosotros estad apercibidos; porque el Hijo del hombre ha de venir á la hora que no pensáis.
