Matthew 25:2-13

2AndG1161 fiveG4002 ofG1537 themG846 wereG1510 wiseG5429, andG2532 fiveG4002 were foolishG3474.

3They thatG3748 were foolishG3474 tookG2983 theirG1438 lampsG3588G2985, and tookG2983 noG3756 oilG1637 withG3326 themG1438:

4ButG1161 the wiseG5429 tookG2983 oilG1637 inG1722 theirG846 vesselsG3588G30 withG3326 theirG846 lampsG3588G2985.

5WhileG1161 the bridegroomG3588G3566 tarriedG5549, theyG3573 allG3956 slumberedG3573 andG2532 sleptG2518.

6AndG1161 at midnightG3319G3571 there wasG1096 a cryG2906 madeG1096, BeholdG3708, the bridegroomG3588G3566 comethG2064; go yeG1831 outG1519 to meetG529 himG846.

7ThenG5119 allG3956 thoseG1565 virginsG3588G3933 aroseG1453, andG2532 trimmedG2885 theirG846 lampsG3588G2985.

8AndG1161 the foolishG3474 saidG3004 unto the wiseG5429, GiveG1325 usG1473 ofG1537 yourG4771 oilG3588G1637; forG3754 ourG1473 lampsG3588G2985 are gone outG4570.

9ButG1161 the wiseG5429 answeredG611, sayingG3004, Not so; lestG3379 there beG714 notG3756 enoughG714 for usG1473 andG2532 youG4771: butG1161 go yeG4198 ratherG3123 toG4314 them that sellG4453, andG2532 buyG59 for yourselvesG1438.

10AndG1161 whileG565 theyG846 wentG565 to buyG59, the bridegroomG3588G3566 cameG2064; andG2532 they that were readyG2092 went inG1525 withG3326 himG846 toG1519 the marriageG3588G1062: andG2532 the doorG3588G2374 was shutG2808.

11AfterwardG5305 cameG2064 alsoG2532 theG3933 otherG3062 virginsG3933, sayingG3004, LordG2962, LordG2962, openG455 to usG1473.

12ButG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG3004, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, I knowG1492 youG4771 notG3756.

13WatchG1127 thereforeG3767, forG3754 ye knowG1492 neitherG3756 the dayG3588G2250 norG3761 the hourG3588G5610 whereinG1722 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 comethG2064.
