Matthew 25:1-6 ▼

1 |At that time, the kingdom from heaven will be comparable to ten bridesmaids who took their oil lamps and went out to meet the groom.

2 Now five of them were foolish, and five were wise,

3 because when the foolish ones took their lamps, they didn't take any oil with them.

4 But the wise ones took flasks of oil with their lamps.

5 Since the groom was late, all of them became sleepy and lay down.

6 But at midnight there came a shout: 'The groom is here! Come out to meet him!'
