Matthew 24:44-25:13

RKJNT(i) 44 Therefore you must also be ready: for the Son of man will come at an hour you do not expect. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord shall find so doing when he comes. 47 Truly I say to you, That he shall put him in charge of all his goods. 48 But if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delays his coming; 49 And shall begin to strike his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50 The lord of that servant shall come on a day when he does not expect him, and at a hour that he is not aware of, 51 And shall cut him apart, and assign him a place with the hypocrites: where there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 25 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 Those who were foolish took their lamps, but took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their flasks with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all became drowsy and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom comes; go out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil; for our lamps are going out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, No; lest there not be enough for us and you: but rather go to those who sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast: and the door was shut. 11 Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he answered and said, Truly I say to you, I do not know you. 13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.
