	NET New English Translation	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
33	Watch out! Stay alert! For you do not know when the time will come.	Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come.	Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.
34	It is like a man going on a journey. He left his house and put his slaves in charge, assigning to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to stay alert.	It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake.	It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
35	Stay alert, then, because you do not know when the owner of the house will return--whether during evening, at midnight, when the rooster crows, or at dawn--	Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning—	“Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn.
36	or else he might find you asleep when he returns suddenly.	lest he come suddenly and find you asleep.	If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping.
37	What I say to you I say to everyone: Stay alert!\|	And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.”	What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
