³² και θελεις εκδιωχθη εκ των ανθρωπων και μετα των θηριων του αγρου θελει εισθαι η κατοικια σου· χορτον ως οι βοες θελεις τρωγει, και επτα καιροι θελουσι παρελθει επι σε, εωσου γνωρισης οτι ο Υψιστος ειναι Κυριος της βασιλειας των ανθρωπων, και εις οντινα θελει, διδει αυτην.

⁹ Επισκεπτεσαι την γην και ποτιζεις αυτην· υπερπλουτιζεις αυτην· ο ποταμος του Θεου ειναι πληρης υδατων· ετοιμαζεις τον σιτον αυτων, επειδη ουτω διεταξας.

¹ "Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.

² Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.

³ Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,

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

⁵ Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.

⁶ But at midnight there was a cry, 'Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!'

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

⁸ The foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'

⁹ But the wise answered, saying, 'What if there isn't enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.'

¹⁰ While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.

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

¹² But he answered, 'Most certainly I tell you, I don't know you.'

¹³ Watch therefore, for you don't know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
