Then{G5119} shall the kingdom{G932} of heaven{G3772} be likened{G3666} unto{G3933} ten{G1176} virgins,{G3933} who{G3748} took{G2983} their{G846} lamps,{G2985} and went{G1831} forth{G1519} to meet{G529} the bridegroom.{G3566}

And{G1161} five{G4002} of{G1537} them{G846} were{G2258} foolish,{G3474} and{G2532} five{G4002} were wise.{G5429}

For{G3748} the foolish,{G3474} when they took{G2983} their{G1438} lamps,{G2985} took{G2983} no{G3756} oil{G1637} with{G3326} them:{G1438}

but{G1161} the wise{G5429} took{G2983} oil{G1637} in{G1722} their{G846} vessels{G30} with{G3326} their{G846} lamps.{G2985}

Now while{G1161} the bridegroom{G3566} tarried,{G5549} they{G3573} all{G3956} slumbered{G3573} and{G2532} slept.{G2518}

But{G1161} at{G3319} midnight{G3571} there is a{G1096} cry,{G2906} Behold,{G2400} the bridegroom!{G3566} Come{G2064} ye{G1831} forth{G1519} to meet{G529} him.{G846}

Then{G5119} all{G3956} those{G1565} virgins{G3933} arose,{G1453} and{G2532} trimmed{G2885} their{G846} lamps.{G2985}

And{G1161} the foolish{G3474} said{G2036} unto the wise,{G5429} Give{G1325} us{G2254} of{G1537} your{G5216} oil;{G1637} for{G3754} our{G2257} lamps{G2985} are going out.{G4570}

But{G1161} the wise{G5429} answered,{G611} saying,{G3004} Peradventure{G3379} there will not{G3756} be{G714} enough{G714} for us{G2254} and{G2532} you:{G5213} go ye{G4198} rather{G3123} to{G4314} them that sell,{G4453} and{G2532} buy{G59} for yourselves.{G1438}

And{G1161} while{G565} they{G846} went{G565} away to buy,{G59} the bridegroom{G3566} came;{G2064} and{G2532} they that were ready{G2092} went in{G1525} with{G3326} him{G846} to{G1519} the marriage{G1062} feast: and{G2532} the door{G2374} was shut.{G2808}

Afterward{G5305} came{G2064} also{G2532} the{G3933} other{G3062} virgins,{G3933} saying,{G3004} Lord,{G2962} Lord,{G2962} open{G455} to us.{G2254}

But{G1161} he answered{G611} and said,{G2036} Verily{G281} I say{G3004} unto you,{G5213} I know{G1492} you{G5209} not.{G3756}

Watch{G1127} therefore,{G3767} for{G3754} ye know{G1492} not{G3756} the day{G2250} nor{G3761} the hour.{G5610}

For{G1063} [it is] as{G5618} [when] a man,{G444} going into another country,{G589} called{G2564} his own{G2398} servants,{G1401} and{G2532} delivered{G3860} unto them{G846} his{G846} goods.{G5224}

And{G2532} unto one{G3739} he gave{G1325} five{G4002} talents,{G5007} to another{G3739} two,{G1417} to{G1161} another{G3739} one;{G1520} to each{G1538} according to{G2596} his several{G2398} ability;{G1411} and{G2532} he went{G2112} on his journey.{G589}

Straightway{G1161} he that received{G2983} the five{G4002} talents{G5007} went{G4198} and{G2532} traded{G2038} with{G1722} them, and{G2532} made{G4160} other{G243} five{G4002} talents.{G5007}

In{G2532} like{G5615} manner he{G846} also{G2532} that{G3588} [received] the two{G1417} gained{G2770} other{G243} two.{G1417}

But{G1161} he that received{G2983} the one{G1520} went{G565} away and{G2532} digged{G3736} in{G1722} the earth,{G1093} and{G2532} hid{G613} his{G846} lord's{G2962} money.{G694}

Now after{G3326} a{G5550} long{G4183} time{G5550} the lord{G2962} of{G1401} those{G1565} servants{G1401} cometh,{G2064} and{G2532} maketh a{G3056} reckoning{G4868} with{G3326} them.{G846}

And he that received{G2983} the five{G4002} talents{G5007} came{G4334} and brought{G4374} other{G243} five{G4002} talents,{G5007} saying,{G3004} Lord,{G2962} thou deliveredst{G3860} unto me{G3427} five{G4002} talents:{G5007} lo,{G1492} I have gained{G2770} other{G243} five{G4002} talents.{G5007}

His{G846} lord{G2962} said{G5346} unto him,{G846} Well done,{G2095} good{G18} and{G2532} faithful{G4103} servant:{G1401} thou hast been{G2258} faithful{G4103} over{G1909} a few things,{G3641} I will set{G2525} thee{G4571} over{G1909} many things;{G3641} enter thou{G1525} into{G1519} the joy{G5479} of{G2962} thy{G4675} lord.{G2962}

And he{G2983} also{G2532} that [received]{G2983} the two{G1417} talents{G5007} came{G4334} and said,{G2036} Lord,{G2962} thou deliveredst{G3860} unto me{G3427} two{G1417} talents:{G5007} lo,{G1492} I have gained{G2770} other{G243} two{G1417} talents.{G5007}

His{G846} lord{G2962} said{G5346} unto him,{G846} Well done,{G2095} good{G18} and{G2532} faithful{G4103} servant:{G1401} thou hast been{G2258} faithful{G4103} over{G1909} a few things,{G3641} I will set{G2525} thee{G4571} over{G1909} many things;{G4183} enter thou{G1525} into{G1519} the joy{G5479} of{G2962} thy{G4675} lord.{G2962}

And{G1161} he also{G2532} that had received{G2983} the{G5007} one{G1520} talent{G5007} came{G4334} and said,{G2036} Lord,{G2962} I knew{G1097} thee{G4571} that{G3754} thou art{G1488} a hard{G4642} man,{G444} reaping{G2325} where{G3699} thou didst{G4687} not{G3756} sow,{G4687} and{G2532} gathering{G4863} where{G3606} thou didst{G1287} not{G3756} scatter;{G1287}

and{G2532} I was afraid,{G5399} and went{G565} away and hid{G2928} thy{G4675} talent{G5007} in{G1722} the earth:{G1093} lo,{G1492} thou hast{G2192} thine{G4674} own.

But his{G846} lord{G2962} answered{G611} and said{G2036} unto him,{G846} Thou wicked{G4190} and{G2532} slothful{G3636} servant,{G1401} thou knewest{G1492} that{G3754} I reap{G2325} where{G3699} I sowed{G4687} not,{G3756} and{G2532} gather{G4863} where{G3606} I did{G1287} not{G3756} scatter;{G1287}

thou{G4571} oughtest{G1163} therefore{G3767} to have put{G906} my{G3450} money{G694} to the bankers,{G5133} and{G2532} at my coming{G2064} I{G1473} should have received{G2865} back{G302} mine own{G1699} with{G4862} interest.{G5110}

Take{G142} ye away therefore{G3767} the talent{G5007} from{G575} him,{G846} and{G2532} give{G1325} it unto him that hath{G2192} the ten{G1176} talents.{G5007}

For{G1063} unto{G2192} every{G3956} one that hath{G2192} shall be given,{G1325} and{G2532} he shall have abundance:{G4052} but{G1161} from{G575} him{G846} that hath{G2192} not,{G3361} even{G2532} that which{G3739} he hath{G2192} shall be taken{G142} away.{G575}

And{G2532} cast ye{G1544} out the unprofitable{G888} servant{G1401} into{G1519} the outer{G1857} darkness:{G4655} there{G1563} shall be{G2071} the weeping{G2805} and{G2532} the gnashing{G1030} of teeth.{G3599}

But when{G3752} the Son{G5207} of man{G444} shall come{G2064} in{G1722} his{G846} glory,{G1391} and{G2532} all{G3956} the{G32} angels{G32} with{G3326} him,{G846} then{G5119} shall he sit{G2523} on{G1909} the throne{G2362} of{G1391} his{G846} glory:{G1391}

and{G2532} before{G1715} him{G846} shall be gathered{G4863} all{G3956} the nations:{G1484} and{G2532} he shall separate{G873} them{G846} one{G240} from{G575} another,{G240} as{G5618} the shepherd{G4166} separateth{G873} the sheep{G4263} from{G575} the goats;{G2056}

and{G2532} he shall set{G2476} the sheep{G4263} on{G1537} his{G846} right hand,{G1188} but{G1161} the goats{G2055} on{G1537} the left.{G2176}

Then{G5119} shall{G2046} the King{G935} say{G2046} unto them{G3588} on{G1537} his{G846} right hand,{G1188} Come, ye{G1205} blessed{G2127} of{G3962} my{G3450} Father,{G3962} inherit{G2816} the kingdom{G932} prepared{G2090} for you{G5213} from{G575} the foundation{G2602} of the world:{G2889}

for{G1063} I was hungry,{G3983} and{G2532} ye gave{G1325} me{G3427} to eat;{G5315} I was thirsty,{G1372} and{G2532} ye gave{G4222} me{G3165} drink;{G4222} I was{G2252} a stranger,{G3581} and{G2532} ye took{G4863} me{G3165} in;{G4863}

naked,{G1131} and{G2532} ye clothed{G4016} me;{G3165} I was sick,{G770} and{G2532} ye visited{G1980} me;{G3165} I was{G2252} in{G1722} prison,{G5438} and{G2532} ye came{G2064} unto{G4314} me.{G3165}

Then{G5119} shall{G611} the righteous{G1342} answer{G611} him,{G846} saying,{G3004} Lord,{G2962} when{G4219} saw we{G1492} thee{G4571} hungry,{G3983} and{G2532} fed{G5142} thee? or{G2228} athirst,{G1372} and{G2532} gave thee drink?{G4222}

And when{G4219} saw we{G1492} thee{G4571} a stranger,{G3581} and{G2532} took thee in?{G4863} or{G2228} naked,{G1131} and{G2532} clothed{G4016} thee?

And{G1161} when{G4219} saw we{G1492} thee{G4571} sick,{G772} or{G2228} in{G1722} prison,{G5438} and{G2532} came{G2064} unto{G4314} thee?{G4571}

And{G2532} the King{G935} shall answer{G611} and say{G2046} unto them,{G846} Verily{G281} I say{G3004} unto you,{G5213} Inasmuch{G1909} as{G3745} ye did{G4160} it unto{G80} one{G1520} of these my{G3450} brethren,{G80} [even] these{G5130} least,{G1646} ye did{G4160} it unto me.{G1698}

Then{G5119} shall he say{G2046} also{G2532} unto them{G3588} on{G1537} the left hand,{G2176} Depart{G4198} from{G575} me,{G1700} ye cursed,{G2672} into{G1519} the eternal{G166} fire{G4442} which is prepared{G2090} for the devil{G1228} and{G2532} his{G846} angels:{G32}

for{G1063} I was hungry,{G3983} and{G2532} ye did not{G3756} give{G1325} me{G3427} to eat;{G5315} I was thirsty,{G1372} and{G2532} ye gave{G4222} me{G3165} no{G3756} drink;{G4222}

I was{G2252} a stranger,{G3581} and{G2532} ye took{G4863} me{G3165} not{G3756} in;{G4863} naked,{G1131} and{G2532} ye clothed{G4016} me{G3165} not;{G3756} sick,{G772} and{G2532} in{G1722} prison,{G5438} and{G2532} ye visited{G1980} me{G3165} not.{G3756}

Then{G5119} shall{G611} they{G846} also{G2532} answer,{G611} saying,{G3004} Lord,{G2962} when{G4219} saw we{G1492} thee{G4571} hungry,{G3983} or{G2228} athirst,{G1372} or{G2228} a stranger,{G3581} or{G2228} naked,{G1131} or{G2228} sick,{G772} or{G2228} in{G1722} prison,{G5438} and{G2532} did{G1247} not{G3756} minister{G1247} unto thee?{G4671}

Then{G5119} shall he answer{G611} them,{G846} saying,{G3004} Verily{G281} I say{G3004} unto you,{G5213} Inasmuch{G1909} as{G3745} ye did{G4160} it not{G3756} unto one{G1520} of these{G5130} least,{G1646} ye did{G4160} it not{G3761} unto me.{G1698}

And{G2532} these{G3778} shall go away{G565} into{G1519} eternal{G166} punishment:{G2851} but{G1161} the righteous{G1342} into{G1519} eternal{G166} life.{G2222}
