Matthew 25 25:1 Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 25:2 Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 25:3 Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 25:4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 25:5 But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. 25:6 And at midnight a cry was heard: Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him! 25:7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 25:8 And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out. 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves. 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, And those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. 25:11 Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us! 25:12 But he answered and said, Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you. 25:13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
