Matthew:25:1-13
asv@Matthew:25:1 @Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
asv@Matthew:25:2 @And five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
asv@Matthew:25:3 @For the foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them:
asv@Matthew:25:4 @but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
asv@Matthew:25:5 @Now while the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
asv@Matthew:25:6 @But at midnight there is a cry, Behold, the bridegroom! Come ye forth to meet him.
asv@Matthew:25:7 @Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
asv@Matthew:25:8 @And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are going out.
asv@Matthew:25:9 @But the wise answered, saying, Peradventure there will not be enough for us and you: go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
asv@Matthew:25:10 @And while they went away to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage feast: and the door was shut.
asv@Matthew:25:11 @Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
asv@Matthew:25:12 @But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
asv@Matthew:25:13 @Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour.
