1 Then shall the kingdom of the heavens be likened to ten virgins, who having taken their lanterns, went forth to the meeting of the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were discerning, and five foolish.
3 Those foolish having taken their lanterns, took no oil with them.
4 And the discerning took oil in their vessels with their lanterns.
5 And the bridegroom delaying, they all slumbered and slept.
6 And in the middle of the night there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom comes; go ye forth to his meeting.
7 Then all these virgins were aroused, and put their lanterns in order.
8 And the foolish said to the discerning, Give us of your oil; for our lights are quenched.
9 And the discerning answered, saying, Lest it should not suffice us and you: but go ye rather to those selling, and buy for yourselves.
10 And they, going to buy, the bridegroom came; and they prepared, went in with him to the nuptials; and the door was locked.
11 And afterwards came also the rest of the virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12 And he having answered said, Truly I say to you, I know you not.
