Lucky that slave there: whom that master of his, showing up, will discover performing so excessively.
Obviously I tell you that he will establish him over all those belongings of his.
When, however, that servant there says in that heart of his, "That master of mine is taking time to show up". And he might start to strike the menservants and the womenservants, to eat and both to drink and to get himself drunk.

But also: why don't you decide this right by yourselves?
Because as you depart with that opponent of yours to an official, on the way give a trade to have yourself rid of him. Not when he might haul you before the judge and the judge will hand you over to the punisher, and the punisher will toss you into a prison.
I tell you. You might never get out of there until also that last penny you should repay.
Do you imagine that those Galileans there became erring beyond all these Galileans because they went through these things ?
