44 Wherefore *ye* also, be ye ready, for in that hour that ye think not the Son of man comes.
45 Who then is the faithful and prudent bondman whom his lord has set over his household, to give them food in season?
46 Blessed is that bondman whom his lord on coming shall find doing thus.
47 Verily I say unto you, that he will set him over all his substance.
48 But if that evil bondman should say in his heart, My lord delays to come,
49 and begin to beat his fellow-bondmen, and eat and drink with the drunken;
50 the lord of that bondman shall come in a day when he does not expect it, and in an hour he knows not of,
51 and shall cut him in two and appoint his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
25 1 Then shall the kingdom of the heavens be made like to ten virgins that having taken their torches, went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were prudent and five foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their torches and did not take oil with them;
4 but the prudent took oil in their vessels with their torches.
5 Now the bridegroom tarrying, they all grew heavy and slept.
6 But in [the] middle of [the] night there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom; go forth to meet him.
7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their torches.
8 And the foolish said to the prudent, Give us of your oil, for our torches are going out.
9 But the prudent answered saying, [We cannot,] lest it might not suffice for us and for you. Go rather to those that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the [ones that were] ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.
11 Afterwards come also the rest of the virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us;
12 but he answering said, Verily I say unto you, I do not know you.
13 Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour.
