Book 40 : MATTHEW - Chapter 025

025:001

And five of them were wise, and five were foolish

025:002

They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them

025:003

But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps

025:004

While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept

025:005

And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him

025:006

Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps

025:007

And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out

025:008

But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves

025:009

And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut

025:010

Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us

025:011

But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not

025:012

Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh

025:013

For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

025:014

And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey

025:015

Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents

025:016

And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two

025:017

But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money

025:018

After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them

025:019

And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more

025:020

His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord

025:021

He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them

025:022

His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord

025:023

Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed

025:024

And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine

025:025

His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed

025:026

Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury

025:027

Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents

025:028

For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath

025:029

And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth

025:030

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory

025:031

And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats

025:032

And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left

025:033

Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world

025:034

For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in

025:035

Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me

025:036

Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink

025:037

When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee

025:038

Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee

025:039

And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me

025:040

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels

025:041

For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink

025:042

I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not

025:043

Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee

025:044

Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me

025:045

And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal
