40:024:045 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath
           made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due
           season?

40:024:046 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall
           find so doing.

40:024:047 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all
           his goods.

40:024:048 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord
           delayeth his coming;

40:024:049 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and
           drink with the drunken;

40:024:050 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh
           not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

40:024:051 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with
           the hypocrites:  there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

40:025:001 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins,
           which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

40:025:002 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

40:025:003 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with
           them: 

40:025:004 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

40:025:005 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

40:025:006 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom
           cometh; go ye out to meet him.

40:025:007 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

40:025:008 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for
           our lamps are gone out.

40:025:009 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.

40:025:010 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.

40:025:011 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord,
           open to us.

40:025:012 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you
           not.

40:025:013 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour
           wherein the Son of man cometh.

40:025:014 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.

40:025:015 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.

40:025:016 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded
           with the same, and made them other five talents.
