Jan 21, 2022. Gospel Matt 25:1-13.
Matt 25:1-13 “25:1. Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like to ten virgins, who taking their lamps went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride. 25:2. And five of them were foolish and five wise. 25:3. But the five foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them. 25:4. But the wise took oil in their vessels with the lamps. 25:5. And the bridegroom tarrying, they all slumbered and slept. 25:6. And at midnight there was a cry made: Behold the bridegroom cometh. Go ye forth to meet him.” “25:7. Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 25:8. And the foolish said to the wise: Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out. 25:9. The wise answered, saying: Lest perhaps there be not enough for us and for you, go ye rather to them that sell and buy for yourselves. 25:10. Now whilst they went to buy the bridegroom came: and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage. And the door was shut. 25:11. But at last came also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us. 25:12. But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not. 25:13. Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour.” Excerpt From The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Complete Anonymous https://books.apple.com/us/book/the-bible-douay-rheims-complete/id955129088 This material may be protected by copyright.
