mkjv - Matthew:25:1-13

mkjv@Matthew:25:1 @ Then shall the kingdom of Heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

mkjv@Matthew:25:2 @ And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

mkjv@Matthew:25:3 @ The foolish ones took their lamps, but took no oil with them.

mkjv@Matthew:25:4 @ But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

mkjv@Matthew:25:5 @ While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

mkjv@Matthew:25:6 @ And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes! Go out to meet him.

mkjv@Matthew:25:7 @ Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.

mkjv@Matthew:25:8 @ And the foolish said to the wise, Give us [some] of your oil, for our lamps have gone out.

mkjv@Matthew:25:9 @ But the wise answered, saying, [No], lest there be not enough for us and you. But rather go to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.

mkjv@Matthew:25:10 @ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came. And they who were ready went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.

mkjv@Matthew:25:11 @ Afterwards the other virgins came also, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

mkjv@Matthew:25:12 @ But he answered and said, Truly I say to you, I do not know you.

mkjv@Matthew:25:13 @ Therefore watch, for you do not know either the day or the hour in which the Son of man comes.
