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.
