Scripture Reading

Matthew 25:1-13

  1     †      ¶  Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

     2     †     And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

     3     †     They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 

     4     †     But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

     5     †     While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

     6     †     And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

     7     †     Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

     8     †     And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

     9     †     But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

     10     †     And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

     11     †     Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

     12     †     But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
     13     †     Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
