FIVE LIGHTS GONE OUT
Matthew 25:1-13
1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins,
which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2
And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish. 3 They that
[were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But
the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the
bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at
midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go
ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed
their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of
your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered,
saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go
ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while
they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready
went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. 11
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to
us. 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know
you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the
hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
