emtv@Matthew:25:1 @ "Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, who having taken their lamps, went out to meet the bridegroom.

emtv@Matthew:25:2 @ Now five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish.

emtv@Matthew:25:3 @ Those who [were] foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them,

emtv@Matthew:25:4 @ but the wise took oil in their vessels along with their lamps.

emtv@Matthew:25:5 @ But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept.

emtv@Matthew:25:6 @ And at midnight a cry was heard: 'Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!'

emtv@Matthew:25:7 @ "Then all those virgins arose, and they trimmed their lamps.

emtv@Matthew:25:8 @ And the foolish said to the wise, 'Give us [some] of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'

emtv@Matthew:25:9 @ "But the wise answered, saying, 'No, lest there should not be enough for you and us; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.'

emtv@Matthew:25:10 @ "But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut.

emtv@Matthew:25:11 @ Afterward the remaining virgins came also, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us!'

emtv@Matthew:25:12 @ "But he answered and said, 'Assuredly I say to you, I do not know you.'

emtv@Matthew:25:13 @ "Watch therefore, for you do not know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.

emtv@Matthew:25:14 @ "For [it is ]as[ if] a man leaving on a journey, who called his own servants and handed over his possessions to them.

emtv@Matthew:25:15 @ And to the one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey.

emtv@Matthew:25:16 @ Then the [one] receiving the five talents went and traded with them, and made five other talents.

emtv@Matthew:25:17 @ And likewise the [one receiving the ]two gained two more also.

emtv@Matthew:25:18 @ But the [one] receiving one went away and dug in the ground, and hid his lord's money.

emtv@Matthew:25:19 @ Then after much time, the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them.

emtv@Matthew:25:20 @ And the [one] who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I gained five more talents besides them.'

emtv@Matthew:25:21 @ "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

emtv@Matthew:25:22 @ "And also the [one ]receiving the two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.'

emtv@Matthew:25:23 @ "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

emtv@Matthew:25:24 @ "Then the [one] having received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you, that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.

emtv@Matthew:25:25 @ And being afraid, I went off and hid your talent in the ground. Look, you have what is yours.'

emtv@Matthew:25:26 @ "But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and slothful servant, you knew that I reap where I did not sow, and gather where I did not scatter.

emtv@Matthew:25:27 @ Therefore you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received what is mine with interest.

emtv@Matthew:25:28 @ Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents.

emtv@Matthew:25:29 @ For to everyone who has, [more] shall be given, and he shall have abundance; but to him who does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.

emtv@Matthew:25:30 @ And cast the useless servant into the darkness outside. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

emtv@Matthew:25:31 @ "And when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then will He sit upon His glorious throne.

emtv@Matthew:25:32 @ All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

emtv@Matthew:25:33 @ And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on [His] left.

emtv@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

emtv@Matthew:25:35 @ for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;

emtv@Matthew:25:36 @ I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.'

emtv@Matthew:25:37 @ "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?

emtv@Matthew:25:38 @ When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?

emtv@Matthew:25:39 @ Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?'

emtv@Matthew:25:40 @ "And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brothers, you did it to Me.'

emtv@Matthew:25:41 @ "Then He will also say to those on the left, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels:

emtv@Matthew:25:42 @ for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;

emtv@Matthew:25:43 @ I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.'

emtv@Matthew:25:44 @ "Then they also will answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and we did not minister to You?'

emtv@Matthew:25:45 @ "Then He will answer them, saying, 'Assuredly I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, neither did you do it to Me.'

emtv@Matthew:25:46 @ "And these shall go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
