Matthew 25

1Then^G5119 shall the kingdom^G932 of heaven^G3772 be likened^G3666 unto^G3933 ten^G1176 virgins^G3933, who^G3748 took^G2983 their^G846 lamps^G2985, and went^G1831 forth^G1519 to meet^G529 the bridegroom^G3566. 2And^G1161 five^G4002 of^G1537 them^G846 were^G2258 foolish^G3474, and^G2532 five^G4002 were wise^G5429. 3For^G3748 the foolish^G3474, when they took^G2983 their^G1438 lamps^G2985, took^G2983 no^G3756 oil^G1637 with^G3326 them^G1438: 4but^G1161 the wise^G5429 took^G2983 oil^G1637 in^G1722 their^G846 vessels^G30 with^G3326 their^G846 lamps^G2985. 5Now while^G1161 the bridegroom^G3566 tarried^G5549, they^G3573 all^G3956 slumbered^G3573 and^G2532 slept^G2518. 6But^G1161 at^G3319 midnight^G3571 there is a^G1096 cry^G2906, Behold^G2400, the bridegroom^G3566! Come^G2064 ye^G1831 forth^G1519 to meet^G529 him^G846. 7Then^G5119 all^G3956 those^G1565 virgins^G3933 arose^G1453, and^G2532 trimmed^G2885 their^G846 lamps^G2985. 8And^G1161 the foolish^G3474 said^G2036 unto the wise^G5429, Give^G1325 us^G2254 of^G1537 your^G5216 oil^G1637; for^G3754 our^G2257 lamps^G2985 are going out^G4570. 9But^G1161 the wise^G5429 answered^G611, saying^G3004, Peradventure^G3379 there will not^G3756 be^G714 enough^G714 for us^G2254 and^G2532 you^G5213: go ye^G4198 rather^G3123 to^G4314 them that sell^G4453, and^G2532 buy^G59 for yourselves^G1438. 10And^G1161 while^G565 they^G846 went^G565 away to buy^G59, the bridegroom^G3566 came^G2064; and^G2532 they that were ready^G2092 went in^G1525 with^G3326 him^G846 to^G1519 the marriage^G1062 feast: and^G2532 the door^G2374 was shut^G2808. 11Afterward^G5305 came^G2064 also^G2532 the^G3933 other^G3062 virgins^G3933, saying^G3004, Lord^G2962, Lord^G2962, open^G455 to us^G2254. 12But^G1161 he answered^G611 and said^G2036, Verily^G281 I say^G3004 unto you^G5213, I know^G1492 you^G5209 not^G3756. 13Watch^G1127 therefore^G3767, for^G3754 ye know^G1492 not^G3756 the day^G2250 nor^G3761 the hour^G5610. 14For^G1063 it is as^G5618 when a man^G444, going into another country^G589, called^G2564 his own^G2398 servants^G1401, and^G2532 delivered^G3860 unto them^G846 his^G846 goods^G5224. 15And^G2532 unto one^G3739 he gave^G1325 five^G4002 talents^G5007, to another^G3739 two^G1417, to^G1161 another^G3739 one^G1520; to each^G1538 according to^G2596 his several^G2398 ability^G1411; and^G2532 he went^G2112 on his journey^G589. 16Straightway^G1161 he that received^G2983 the five^G4002 talents^G5007 went^G4198 and^G2532 traded^G2038 with^G1722 them, and^G2532 made^G4160 other^G243 five^G4002 talents^G5007. 17In^G2532 like^G5615 manner he^G846 also^G2532 that^G3588 received the two^G1417 gained^G2770 other^G243 two^G1417. 18But^G1161 he that received^G2983 the one^G1520 went^G565 away and^G2532 digged^G3736 in^G1722 the earth^G1093, and^G2532 hid^G613 his^G846 lord's^G2962 money^G694. 19Now after^G3326 a^G5550 long^G4183 time^G5550 the lord^G2962 of^G1401 those^G1565 servants^G1401 cometh^G2064, and^G2532 maketh a^G3056 reckoning^G4868 with^G3326 them^G846. 20And he that received^G2983 the five^G4002 talents^G5007 came^G4334 and brought^G4374 other^G243 five^G4002 talents^G5007, saying^G3004, Lord^G2962, thou deliveredst^G3860 unto me^G3427 five^G4002 talents^G5007: lo^G1492, I have gained^G2770 other^G243 five^G4002 talents^G5007. 21His^G846 lord^G2962 said^G5346 unto him^G846, Well done^G2095, good^G18 and^G2532 faithful^G4103 servant^G1401: thou hast been^G2258 faithful^G4103 over^G1909 a few things^G3641, I will set^G2525 thee^G4571 over^G1909 many things^G3641; enter thou^G1525 into^G1519 the joy^G5479 of^G2962 thy^G4675 lord^G2962. 22And he^G2983 also^G2532 that received^G2983 the two^G1417 talents^G5007 came^G4334 and said^G2036, Lord^G2962, thou deliveredst^G3860 unto me^G3427 two^G1417 talents^G5007: lo^G1492, I have gained^G2770 other^G243 two^G1417 talents^G5007. 23His^G846 lord^G2962 said^G5346 unto him^G846, Well done^G2095, good^G18 and^G2532 faithful^G4103 servant^G1401: thou hast been^G2258 faithful^G4103 over^G1909 a few things^G3641, I will set^G2525 thee^G4571 over^G1909 many things^G4183; enter thou^G1525 into^G1519 the joy^G5479 of^G2962 thy^G4675 lord^G2962. 24And^G1161 he also^G2532 that had received^G2983 the^G5007 one^G1520 talent^G5007 came^G4334 and said^G2036, Lord^G2962, I knew^G1097 thee^G4571 that^G3754 thou art^G1488 a hard^G4642 man^G444, reaping^G2325 where^G3699 thou didst^G4687 not^G3756 sow^G4687, and^G2532 gathering^G4863 where^G3606 thou didst^G1287 not^G3756 scatter^G1287; 25and^G2532 I was afraid^G5399, and went^G565 away and hid^G2928 thy^G4675 talent^G5007 in^G1722 the earth^G1093: lo^G1492, thou hast^G2192 thine^G4674 own. 26But his^G846 lord^G2962 answered^G611 and said^G2036 unto him^G846, Thou wicked^G4190 and^G2532 slothful^G3636 servant^G1401, thou knewest^G1492 that^G3754 I reap^G2325 where^G3699 I sowed^G4687 not^G3756, and^G2532 gather^G4863 where^G3606 I did^G1287 not^G3756 scatter^G1287; 27thou^G4571 oughtest^G1163 therefore^G3767 to have put^G906 my^G3450 money^G694 to the bankers^G5133, and^G2532 at my coming^G2064 I^G1473 should have received^G2865 back^G302 mine own^G1699 with^G4862 interest^G5110. 28Take^G142 ye away therefore^G3767 the talent^G5007 from^G575 him^G846, and^G2532 give^G1325 it unto him that hath^G2192 the ten^G1176 talents^G5007. 29For^G1063 unto^G2192 every^G3956 one that hath^G2192 shall be given^G1325, and^G2532 he shall have abundance^G4052: but^G1161 from^G575 him^G846 that hath^G2192 not^G3361, even^G2532 that which^G3739 he hath^G2192 shall be taken^G142 away^G575. 30And^G2532 cast ye^G1544 out the unprofitable^G888 servant^G1401 into^G1519 the outer^G1857 darkness^G4655: there^G1563 shall be^G2071 the weeping^G2805 and^G2532 the gnashing^G1030 of teeth^G3599. 31But when^G3752 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 shall come^G2064 in^G1722 his^G846 glory^G1391, and^G2532 all^G3956 the^G32 angels^G32 with^G3326 him^G846, then^G5119 shall he sit^G2523 on^G1909 the throne^G2362 of^G1391 his^G846 glory^G1391: 32and^G2532 before^G1715 him^G846 shall be gathered^G4863 all^G3956 the nations^G1484: and^G2532 he shall separate^G873 them^G846 one^G240 from^G575 another^G240, as^G5618 the shepherd^G4166 separateth^G873 the sheep^G4263 from^G575 the goats^G2056; 33and^G2532 he shall set^G2476 the sheep^G4263 on^G1537 his^G846 right hand^G1188, but^G1161 the goats^G2055 on^G1537 the left^G2176. 34Then^G5119 shall^G2046 the King^G935 say^G2046 unto them^G3588 on^G1537 his^G846 right hand^G1188, Come, ye^G1205 blessed^G2127 of^G3962 my^G3450 Father^G3962, inherit^G2816 the kingdom^G932 prepared^G2090 for you^G5213 from^G575 the foundation^G2602 of the world^G2889: 35for^G1063 I was hungry^G3983, and^G2532 ye gave^G1325 me^G3427 to eat^G5315; I was thirsty^G1372, and^G2532 ye gave^G4222 me^G3165 drink^G4222; I was^G2252 a stranger^G3581, and^G2532 ye took^G4863 me^G3165 in^G4863; 36naked^G1131, and^G2532 ye clothed^G4016 me^G3165; I was sick^G770, and^G2532 ye visited^G1980 me^G3165; I was^G2252 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 ye came^G2064 unto^G4314 me^G3165. 37Then^G5119 shall^G611 the righteous^G1342 answer^G611 him^G846, saying^G3004, Lord^G2962, when^G4219 saw we^G1492 thee^G4571 hungry^G3983, and^G2532 fed^G5142 thee? or^G2228 athirst^G1372, and^G2532 gave thee drink^G4222? 38And when^G4219 saw we^G1492 thee^G4571 a stranger^G3581, and^G2532 took thee in^G4863? or^G2228 naked^G1131, and^G2532 clothed^G4016 thee? 39And^G1161 when^G4219 saw we^G1492 thee^G4571 sick^G772, or^G2228 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 came^G2064 unto^G4314 thee^G4571? 40And^G2532 the King^G935 shall answer^G611 and say^G2046 unto them^G846, Verily^G281 I say^G3004 unto you^G5213, Inasmuch^G1909 as^G3745 ye did^G4160 it unto^G80 one^G1520 of these my^G3450 brethren^G80, even these^G5130 least^G1646, ye did^G4160 it unto me^G1698. 41Then^G5119 shall he say^G2046 also^G2532 unto them^G3588 on^G1537 the left hand^G2176, Depart^G4198 from^G575 me^G1700, ye cursed^G2672, into^G1519 the eternal^G166 fire^G4442 which is prepared^G2090 for the devil^G1228 and^G2532 his^G846 angels^G32: 42for^G1063 I was hungry^G3983, and^G2532 ye did not^G3756 give^G1325 me^G3427 to eat^G5315; I was thirsty^G1372, and^G2532 ye gave^G4222 me^G3165 no^G3756 drink^G4222; 43I was^G2252 a stranger^G3581, and^G2532 ye took^G4863 me^G3165 not^G3756 in^G4863; naked^G1131, and^G2532 ye clothed^G4016 me^G3165 not^G3756; sick^G772, and^G2532 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 ye visited^G1980 me^G3165 not^G3756. 44Then^G5119 shall^G611 they^G846 also^G2532 answer^G611, saying^G3004, Lord^G2962, when^G4219 saw we^G1492 thee^G4571 hungry^G3983, or^G2228 athirst^G1372, or^G2228 a stranger^G3581, or^G2228 naked^G1131, or^G2228 sick^G772, or^G2228 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 did^G1247 not^G3756 minister^G1247 unto thee^G4671? 45Then^G5119 shall he answer^G611 them^G846, saying^G3004, Verily^G281 I say^G3004 unto you^G5213, Inasmuch^G1909 as^G3745 ye did^G4160 it not^G3756 unto one^G1520 of these^G5130 least^G1646, ye did^G4160 it not^G3761 unto me^G1698. 46And^G2532 these^G3778 shall go away^G565 into^G1519 eternal^G166 punishment^G2851: but^G1161 the righteous^G1342 into^G1519 eternal^G166 life^G2222.
