"And, when the Son of man cometh in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then will He sit on the throne of His glory;

Then will He say also to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me, ye accursed! into the eternal fire which was prepared for the Devil and his angels;

"For it is as when a man, going abroad, called his own servants, and delivered to them his goods:

"And, answering, the King will say to them, 'Verily I say to you, inasmuch as ye did it to one of My brethren, even the least, ye did it to Me.'

"Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be likened to ten virgins, who, taking their lamps, went forth to meet the bridegroom.

His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will set you over many; enter into the joy of your lord.'

It behooved you, therefore, to put my money to the bankers; and, at my coming, I would have received my own with interest.

Take from him, therefore, the talent, and give it to him who has the ten talents.'

"Then will the righteous answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see Thee hungering, and fed Thee? or thirsting, and gave Thee drink?

and He will set the sheep, indeed, on His right hand, but the goats on the left.

and cast out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness: there will be the weeping, and the gnashing of teeth!

For, to every one that has, shall be given, and he shall be made to abound; but from him that has not shall be taken away even what he has;

And, when did we see Thee sick, or in prison, and came to Thee?'

And, while they were going away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the ready ones went in with him to the marriage feast; and the door was shut.

and there will be gathered before Him all the nations; and He will separate them one from another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;

Now, the bridegroom tarrying, they all became drowsy, and were sleeping;

but at midnight a cry has been made, 'Behold, the bridegroom! Come ye forth to meet him!'

Watch, therefore, because ye know not the day, nor the hour!

and to one, indeed, he gave five talents; and to another, two; and to another, one??o each according to his own ability; and he went abroad.

"Then will He answer them, saying, 'Verily I say to you, inasmuch as ye did it not to one of these least, ye did it not to Me!'

His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things; I will set you over many things: enter into the joy of your lord.'

for I hungered, and ye did not give Me to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave Me no drink;

And five of them were foolish, and five wise;

And he who received the one talent, coming near said, 'Lord, I knew you, that you are a hard man; reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter;

And when did we see Thee a stranger, and took Thee in; or naked, and clothed Thee?

for the foolish, taking their lamps, did not take oil with them;

"And afterward come also the remaining virgins, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us!'

"Then will they also answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see Thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to Thee?'

But he, answering, said, 'Verily I say to you, I know you not.'

And the foolish said to the wise, 'Give us of your oil, because our lamps are going out.'

"Straightway the one receiving the five talents, going, traded with them, and gained five others.
