## Matthew 24:44-46 in Context (Verses 41–49 KJV)
 
 [41 ](/kjv/matthew/24/41) Two *women shall be* grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
 
 [42 ](/kjv/matthew/24/42) ¶ Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
 
 [43 ](/kjv/matthew/24/43) But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
 
 [44 ](/kjv/matthew/24/44) Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
 
 [45 ](/kjv/matthew/24/45) Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
 
 [46 ](/kjv/matthew/24/46) Blessed *is* that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
 
 [47 ](/kjv/matthew/24/47) Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
 
 [48 ](/kjv/matthew/24/48) But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
 
 [49 ](/kjv/matthew/24/49) And shall begin to smite *his* fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
 
[Matthew 23](/kjv/matthew/23) [Matthew 25](/kjv/matthew/25)
