Matthew 25 : 1 - 8
Chapter 25
1 | "Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
|
2 | Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
|
3 | Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them,
|
4 | but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
|
5 | But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
|
6 | "And at midnight a cry was heard: "Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!'
|
7 | Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.
|
8 | And the foolish said to the wise, "Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'
