Matthew:25:1-13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened (
5701 )
unto ten virgins ,
which took (
5631 )
their lamps ,
and went forth (
5627 )
to meet the bridegroom .
*
And five of them were (
5713 )
wise ,
and five were foolish .
*
They that were foolish took (
5631 )
their lamps ,
and took (
5627 )
no oil with them :
*
But the wise took (
5627 )
oil in their vessels with their lamps .
*
While the bridegroom tarried (
5723 ),
they all slumbered (
5656 )
and slept (
5707 ).
*
And at midnight there was a cry made (
5754 ),
Behold (
5628 ),
the bridegroom cometh (
5736 );
go ye out (
5737 )
to meet him .
*
Then all those virgins arose (
5681 ),
and trimmed (
5656 )
their lamps .
*
And the foolish said (
5627 )
unto the wise ,
Give (
5628 )
us of your oil ;
for our lamps are gone out (
5743 ).
*
But the wise answered (
5662 ),
saying (
5723 ),
Not so ;
lest there be not enough (
5661 )
for us and you :
but go ye (
5737 )
rather to them that sell (
5723 ),
and buy (
5657 )
for yourselves .
*
And while they went (
5740 )
to buy (
5658 ),
the bridegroom came (
5627 );
and they that were ready went in (
5627 )
with him to the marriage :
and the door was shut (
5681 ).
*
Afterward came (
5736 )
also the other virgins ,
saying (
5723 ),
Lord ,
Lord ,
open (
5657 )
to us .
*
But he answered (
5679 )
and said (
5627 ),
Verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
I know (
5758 )
you not .
*
Watch (
5720 )
therefore ,
for ye know (
5758 )
neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh (
5736 ).
