Parable of the Faithful Servant

The Parable of the Faithful Servant is a parable attributed to Jesus in the Gospels of Luke and of Mark.

From Luke 12:35-40 (KJV)

12:35 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;  
12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will
return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto
him immediately.  
12:37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find
watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to
sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.  
12:38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and
find them so, blessed are those servants.  
12:39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the
thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be
broken through.  
12:40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye
think not. 

From Mark 13:34-37:

13:33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.  
13:34 For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his
house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and
commanded the porter to watch.  
13:35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house
cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the
morning:  
13:36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.  
13:37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch
