The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever."

How happy are those servants whose master finds them awake and ready when he returns! I tell you, he will take off his coat, have them sit down, and will wait on them.

Indeed, I tell you, the master will put that servant in charge of all his property.

'Well done,' he said; 'you are a good servant! Since you were faithful in small matters, I will put you in charge of ten cities.'

and just as my Father has given me the right to rule, so I will give you the same right.

You will eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and you will sit on thrones to rule over the twelve tribes of Israel.

Whoever wants to serve me must follow me, so that my servant will be with me where I am. And my Father will honor anyone who serves me.

If we continue to endure, we shall also rule with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.

And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the glorious crown which will never lose its brightness.

To those who win the victory I will give the right to sit beside me on my throne, just as I have been victorious and now sit by my Father on his throne.

Those who win the victory will receive this from me: I will be their God, and they will be my children.
