¹ THEN THE kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. ² Five of them were foolish (thoughtless, without forethought) and five were wise (sensible, intelligent, and prudent). ³ For when the foolish took their lamps, they did not take any oil with them; ⁴ But the wise took flasks of oil along with them with their lamps. ⁵ While the bridegroom lingered and was slow in coming, they all began nodding their heads, and they fell asleep. ⁶ But at midnight there was a shout, Behold, the bridegroom! Go out to meet him! ⁷ Then all those virgins got up and put their own lamps in order. ⁸ And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out. ⁹ But the wise replied, There will not be enough for us and for you; go instead to the dealers and buy for yourselves. ¹⁰ But while they were going away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were prepared went in with him to the marriage feast; and the door was shut. ¹¹ Later the other virgins also came and said, Lord, Lord, open to us! ¹² But He replied, I solemnly declare to you, I do not know you . ¹³ Watch therefore , for you know neither the day nor the hour when the Son of Man will come.
