Matthew 25:2-13

2And fiveG4002 of them wereG1510 prudent and fiveG4002 foolishG3474.

3They that were foolishG3474 tookG2983 their torches and did not takeG2983 oilG1637 with them;

4but the prudent tookG2983 oilG1637 in their vessels with their torches.

5NowG1161 the bridegroomG3566 tarrying, they all grew heavy and slept.

6But in [the] middleG3319 of [the] nightG3571 there was a cry, BeholdG2400, the bridegroomG3566; goG1831 forthG1831 to meetG529 him.

7Then all those virginsG3933 arose and trimmed their torches.

8And the foolishG3474 saidG3004 to the prudent, GiveG1325 us of your oilG1637, for our torches are going out.

9But the prudent answeredG611 sayingG3004, [We cannot,] lestG3361 it might not suffice for us and for you. GoG4198 ratherG3123 to those that sellG4453, and buyG59 for yourselves.

10But as they wentG565 awayG565 to buyG59, the bridegroomG3566 cameG2064, and the [ones that were] readyG2092 wentG565 in with him to the weddingG1062 feastG1062, and the doorG2374 was shutG2808.

11Afterwards comeG2064 alsoG2532 the restG3062 of the virginsG3933, sayingG3004, LordG2962, LordG2962, openG455 to us;

12but he answeringG611 saidG3004, Verily I sayG3004 unto you, I do not know you.

13WatchG1127 thereforeG3767, for ye know not the dayG2250 nor the hourG5610.
