Mark 13:32

But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father. Nor the Son... Not that the Son of God is absolutely ignorant of the day of judgment, but that he knoweth it not, as our teacher; that is, he knoweth it not so as to teach it to us, as not being expedient.

Douay-Rheims Bible (Challoner, 1752)

In The King James Version

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
