For many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Messiah; and shall deceive many.

23 "Then if anyone tells you, 'Look, here is the Christ,' or, 'There,' do not believe it.
Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Messiah, or there; believe it not.
24 For there will arise false messiahs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
For there shall arise false messiahs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 and they did not know until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

42 Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord comes.
Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your master doth come.
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.
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.

Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.
Blessed is that servant, whom his master when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Truly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My master delayeth his coming;

The master of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
