— Luke 12:35, World English Bible
“Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;”
“Let your loins be girded about, and your lamps burning; ”
“Call to Faithful Stewardship“Get dressed for service and keep your lamps burning;”
“Let your loins be girt and lamps burning in your hands.”
“Be ready, dressed as for a journey, with your lights burning.”
“Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;”
Don't be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don't grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn't fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
"Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning.
Be like men watching for their lord, when he returns from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
Blessed are those servants, whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you, that he will dress himself, and make them recline, and will come and serve them.
They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch, and finds them so.
