“ Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”

“ Look! I am coming like a thief! Blessed is anyone who stays awake and keeps their clothes on. Then they will be ready. They will not be caught naked and so be put to shame.”

(“ Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!”)

“ Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me, who keep their clothing ready so they will not have to walk around naked and ashamed.”

“ Look, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who is alert and remains clothed so that he may not go around naked and people see his shame.”

(“ Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, so that he will not walk about naked and people will not see his shame.”)

“ Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”

( Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.)

Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed[ is] he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

( Look! I will come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays alert and does not lose his clothes so that he will not have to walk around naked and his shameful condition be seen.)

“ Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he doesn’t walk naked, and they see his shame.”

Therefore be alert, since you don’t know what day your Lord is coming.But know this: If the homeowner had known what time the thief was coming, he would have stayed alert and not let his house be broken into.

I advise you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire so that you may be rich, white clothes so that you may be dressed and your shameful nakedness not be exposed, and ointment to spread on your eyes so that you may see.

But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief; on that day the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, the elements will burn and be dissolved, and the earth and the works on it will be disclosed.

since, when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.

Watch! Be alert! For you don’t know when the time is coming.It is like a man on a journey, who left his house, gave authority to his slaves, gave each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to be alert.Therefore be alert, since you don’t know when the master of the house is coming— whether in the evening or at midnight or at the crowing of the rooster or early in the morning.Otherwise, he might come suddenly and find you sleeping.And what I say to you, I say to everyone: Be alert!”

Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; keep it, and repent. But if you are not alert, I will come like a thief, and you have no idea at what hour I will come against you.But you have a few people in Sardis who have not defiled their clothes, and they will walk with Me in white, because they are worthy.

For you yourselves know very well that the Day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night.When they say,“ Peace and security,” then sudden destruction comes on them, like labor pains come on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

“ Therefore be alert, because you don’t know either the day or the hour.

Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for three years I did not stop warning each one of you with tears.

So then, we must not sleep, like the rest, but we must stay awake and be serious.

Stay awake and pray so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

But be alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Your nakedness will be uncovered, and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.

Now the end of all things is near; therefore, be serious and disciplined for prayer.

Stay awake and pray, so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

Those slaves the master will find alert when he comes will be blessed. I assure you: He will get ready, have them recline at the table, then come and serve them.If he comes in the middle of the night, or even near dawn, and finds them alert, those slaves are blessed.But know this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.You also be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour that you do not expect.”“ Lord,” Peter asked,“ are You telling this parable to us or to everyone?”The Lord said:“ Who then is the faithful and sensible manager his master will put in charge of his household servants to give them their allotted food at the proper time?That slave whose master finds him working when he comes will be rewarded.

Moses saw that the people were out of control, for Aaron had let them get out of control, resulting in weakness before their enemies.

Woe to him who gives his neighbors drink, pouring out your wrath and even making them drunk, in order to look at their nakedness!

Otherwise, I will strip her naked and expose her as she was on the day of her birth. I will make her like a desert and like a parched land, and I will let her die of thirst.

I am therefore going to gather all the lovers you pleased— all those you loved as well as all those you hated. I will gather them against you from all around and expose your nakedness to them so they see you completely naked.
