Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
And the foolish said to the wise, Give us of your oil: for our lamps are gone out.
Let your loins be girt, and your lights burning;
Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found by him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
