but the provident took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But as the bridegroom stayed long, they all slumbered and slept. Then at midnight the cry came, Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go forth to meet him. Then all these virgins arose, and set about trimming their lamps. And the foolish said to the provident, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the provident replied, saying, No; lest there be not a sufficiency for us and you: but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.

Then came afterwards the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us. But he answering said, Verily, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour in which the Son of man cometh.

And as they were hearkening to these things, he proceeded on, and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and they supposed that immediately the kingdom of God would openly appear.

And calling his ten servants, he gave them ten manehs, and said unto them, Employ yourselves in traffic, till I come back. read more.
But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not have this man to rule over us. And it came to pass, at his return, after receiving the kingdom, that he ordered the servants to be called, to whom he had given the money, that he might know what every one had gained by his traffic. Then came the first, and said, Sir, thy maneh has gained ten manehs. And he said unto him, Well done, good servant: because thou hast been faithful in the least matter, hold thou dominion over ten cities. And the second came, saying, Lord, thy maneh hath gained five manehs. Then said he also to this man, Be thou also over five cities. And another came, saying, Master, there is thy maneh, which I have kept wrapt up in a napkin: for I was afraid of thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up where thou hadst laid nothing down, and reapest where thou didst not sow. And he said to him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow; why then gavest thou not my money to the bank, so when I came I might have required it with interest? And he said to those who stood by, Take from him the maneh, and give it to him who hath the ten manehs. (And they say unto him, Sir, he hath ten manehs.) For I say unto you, That to every one who hath, shall more be given; but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him. But as for these enemies of mine, who would not that I should reign over them, bring them hither, and slay them before me.
