drb Matthew:25:1-13
drb@Matthew:25:1 @Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like to ten virgins, who taking their lamps went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride.
drb@Matthew:25:2 @And five of them were foolish, and five wise.
drb@Matthew:25:3 @But the five foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them:
drb@Matthew:25:4 @But the wise took oil in their vessels with the lamps.
drb@Matthew:25:5 @And the bridegroom tarrying, they all slumbered and slept.
drb@Matthew:25:6 @And at midnight there was a cry made: Behold the bridegroom cometh, go ye forth to meet him.
drb@Matthew:25:7 @Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.
drb@Matthew:25:8 @And the foolish said to the wise: Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out.
drb@Matthew:25:9 @The wise answered, saying: Lest perhaps there be not enough for us and for you, go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves
drb@Matthew:25:10 @Now whilst they went to buy, the bridegroom came: and they that were ready, went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.
drb@Matthew:25:11 @But at last come also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us.
drb@Matthew:25:12 @But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not.
drb@Matthew:25:13 @Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour.
