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.
45 ¿Quién pues es el siervo fiel y prudente, al cual puso su señor sobre su familia para que les dé alimento á tiempo?
