Mark 13:32-37 ALT
(32) "But concerning that day or hour no one knows, neither the angels, the [ones] in heaven, nor the Son, except the Father. (33) "Be watching! Be staying alert, and be praying! For you do not know when the time is. (34) "[It is] like a person away from home on a journey, having left his house, and having given the authority to his slaves [or, having put his slaves in charge] and to each [one] his work, commanded also the doorkeeper that he should keep watching. (35) "Therefore, keep watching! For you* do not know when the lord of the house is coming-evening, or midnight, or rooster-crowing [fig., before dawn], or early morning- (36) lest, having come suddenly [or, unexpectedly], he finds you* sleeping. (37) "So what I say to you*, I say to all-keep watching!"

Mark 13:32-37 BBE
(32) But of that day or that hour no one has knowledge, not even the angels in heaven, or the Son, but the Father. (33) Take care, keep watch with prayer: for you are not certain when the time will be. (34) It is as when a man who is in another country for a time, having gone away from his house, and given authority to his servants and to everyone his work, gives the porter an order to keep watch. (35) So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning; (36) For fear that, coming suddenly, he sees you sleeping. (37) And what I say to you, I say to all, Keep watch.

Mark 13:32-37 Darby
(32) But of that day or of that hour no one knows, neither the angels who are in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father. (33) Take heed, watch and pray, for ye do not know when the time is: (34) it is as a man gone out of the country, having left his house and given to his bondmen the authority, and to each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper that he should watch. (35) Watch therefore, for ye do not know when the master of the house comes: evening, or midnight, or cock-crow, or morning; (36) lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. (37) But what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
