St. Matthew 25:3-11 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

3. Those that were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them;

4. but the prudent took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

5. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

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

7. Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.

8. And the foolish said unto the prudent, Give us of your oil, for our lamps are going out.

9. But the prudent answered, saying, Lest there be not enough for us and you, but go ye rather to them that sell and buy for yourselves.

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

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