Matthew 25:8-10

New Testament for Everyone

⁸ “The silly ones said to the sensible ones, ‘Give us some of your oil! Our torches are going out!’

⁹ “But the sensible ones answered, ‘No! If we do that, there won’t be enough for all of us together! You’d better go to the dealers and buy some for yourselves.’

¹⁰ “So off they went to buy oil. But, while they were gone, the bridegroom arrived. The ones who were ready went in with him to the wedding party, and the door was shut.
