| 1 | "Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. | Mt 24:42-51 Lk 21:34-36 |
| 2 | Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. | Mt 7:24-27 Mt 13:19-23 Mt 13:38-43 Mt 13:47-43 Mt 13:48-43 Mt 22:10 Mt 22:11 Jer 24:2 1Co 10:1-5 1Jn 2:19 Jud 1:5 |
| 3 | Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them, | Mt 23:25 Mt 23:26 Isa 48:1 Isa 48:2 Isa 58:2 Ezk 33:3 2Ti 3:5 Heb 12:15 Rev 3:1 Rev 3:15 Rev 3:16 |
| 4 | but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. | Ps 45:7 Zc 4:2 Zc 4:3 Jn 1:15 Jn 1:16 Jn 3:34 Ro 8:9 2Co 1:22 Ga 5:22 Ga 5:23 1Jn 2:20 1Jn 2:27 Jud 1:19 |
| 5 | Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept. | Mt 25:19 Mt 24:48 Hab 2:3 Lk 12:45 Lk 20:9 Heb 10:36 Heb 10:37 2Pe 3:4-9 Rev 2:25 |
| 6 | But at midnight there was a cry, `Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!` | Mt 24:44 Mk 13:33-37 Lk 12:20 Lk 12:38-40 Lk 12:46-40 1Th 5:1-3 Rev 16:15 |
| 7 | Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. | Lk 12:35 2Pe 3:14 Rev 2:4 Rev 2:5 Rev 3:2 Rev 3:19 Rev 3:20 |
| 8 | The foolish said to the wise, `Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.` | Mt 3:9 Lk 16:24 Ac 8:24 Rev 3:9 |
| 9 | But the wise answered, saying, `What if there will not be enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.` | Ps 49:7-9 Jer 15:1 Ezk 14:14-16 Ezk 14:20-16 |
| 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. | Mt 25:6 Rev 1:7 Rev 22:12 Rev 22:20 |
| 11 | Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, `Lord, Lord, open to us.` | Mt 7:21-23 Heb 12:16 Heb 12:17 |
| 12 | But he answered, `Most assuredly I tell you, I don`t know you.` | Ps 1:6 Ps 5:5 Hab 1:13 Lk 13:26-30 Jn 9:31 Jn 10:27 1Co 8:3 Ga 4:9 2Ti 2:19 |
| 13 | Watch therefore, for you don`t know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming. | Mt 24:42-44 Mk 13:33-37 Lk 21:36 Ac 20:31 1Co 16:13 1Th 5:6 2Ti 4:5 1Pe 4:7 1Pe 5:8 Rev 16:15 |
| 14 | "For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and delivered his goods to them. | Mt 21:33 Mk 13:34 Lk 19:12 Lk 19:13 Lk 20:9 |
| 15 | To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability, and he went on his journey. | Mt 18:24 Lk 12:48 Lk 19:13 Lk 19:14 |
| 16 | Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. | 2Sa 7:1-3 1Ch 13:1-3 1Ch 22:1-26 1Ch 28:2-21 1Ch 29:1-17 2Ch 1:9 2Ch 1:10 2Ch 15:8-15 2Ch 17:3-9 2Ch 19:4-10 2Ch 31:20 2Ch 31:21 2Ch 33:15 2Ch 33:16 2Ch 34:1-35 Ne 5:14-19 Isa 23:18 Isa 49:23 Isa 60:5-16 Ac 13:36 Ro 15:18 Ro 15:19 1Co 9:16-23 1Co 15:10 1Ti 6:17 1Ti 6:18 2Ti 2:6 2Ti 4:5-8 Phm 1:6 Phm 1:7 3Jn 1:5-8 |
| 17 | In like manner he also who got the two gained another two. | Gn 18:19 2Sa 19:32 1Ki 18:3 1Ki 18:4 2Ki 4:8-10 Jb 29:11-17 Jb 31:16-22 Pr 3:9 Pr 3:10 Ec 11:1-6 Mk 14:3-8 Ac 9:36-39 Ac 10:2 Ac 11:29 Ac 11:30 2Co 8:12 2Co 9:11-14 Ga 6:9 Ga 6:10 Eph 5:16 Col 4:17 1Ti 5:10 2Ti 1:16-18 Heb 6:10 Heb 6:11 1Pe 4:10 |
| 18 | But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord`s money. | Pr 18:9 Pr 26:13-16 Hg 1:2-4 Mal 1:10 Lk 19:20 Heb 6:12 2Pe 1:8 |
| 19 | Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them. | Mt 25:5 Mt 24:48 |
| 20 | He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, `Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents besides them.` | Lk 19:16 Lk 19:17 Ac 20:24 1Co 15:10 Col 1:29 2Ti 4:1-8 Jm 2:18 |
| 21 | His lord said to him, `Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.` | 2Ch 31:20 2Ch 31:21 Lk 16:10 Ro 2:29 1Co 4:5 2Co 5:9 2Co 10:18 1Pe 1:7 |
| 22 | He also who got the two talents came and said, `Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents besides them.` | Lk 19:18 Lk 19:19 Ro 12:6-8 2Co 8:1-3 2Co 8:7-3 2Co 8:8-3 2Co 8:12-3 |
| 23 | His lord said to him, `Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.` | Mt 25:21 Mk 12:41-44 Mk 14:8 Mk 14:9 |
| 24 | He also who had received the one talent came and said, `Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter. | Mt 7:21 Lk 6:46 |
| 25 | I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have your own.` | 2Sa 6:9 2Sa 6:10 Pr 26:13 Isa 57:11 Ro 8:15 2Ti 1:6 2Ti 1:7 Rev 21:8 |
| 26 | But his lord answered him, `You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn`t sow, and gather where I didn`t scatter. | Mt 18:32 Jb 15:5 Jb 15:6 |
| 27 | You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest. | Lk 19:22 Lk 19:23 Ro 3:19 Jud 1:15 |
| 28 | Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents. | Lk 10:42 Lk 19:24 |
| 29 | For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who has not, even that which he has will be taken away. | Mt 13:12 Mk 4:25 Lk 8:18 Lk 16:9-12 Lk 19:25 Lk 19:26 Jn 15:2 |
| 30 | Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.` | Mt 3:10 Mt 5:13 Jer 15:1 Jer 15:2 Ezk 15:2-5 Lk 14:34 Lk 14:35 Jn 15:6 Tit 3:14 Heb 6:7 Heb 6:8 Rev 3:15 Rev 3:16 |
| 31 | "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then will he sit on the throne of his glory. | Mt 25:6 Mt 16:27 Mt 19:28 Mt 26:64 Dn 7:13 Dn 7:14 Zc 14:5 Mk 8:38 Mk 14:62 Lk 9:26 Lk 22:69 Jn 1:51 Jn 5:27-29 Ac 1:11 1Th 4:16 2Th 1:7 2Th 1:8 Heb 1:8 Jud 1:14 Rev 1:7 |
| 32 | Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. | Ps 96:13 Ps 98:9 Ac 17:30 Ac 17:31 Ro 2:12 Ro 2:16 Ro 14:10-12 2Co 5:10 Rev 20:12-15 |
| 33 | He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. | Ps 79:13 Ps 95:7 Ps 100:3 Jn 10:26-28 Jn 21:15-17 |
| 34 | Then the King will tell them on his right hand, `Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; | Mt 21:5 Mt 22:11-13 Mt 27:37 Ps 2:6 Ps 24:7-10 Isa 9:7 Isa 32:1 Isa 32:2 Isa 33:22 Jer 23:5 Jer 23:6 Ezk 37:24 Ezk 37:25 Dn 9:25 Zep 3:15 Zc 9:9 Zc 9:10 Lk 1:31-33 Lk 19:38 Jn 1:49 Jn 12:13 Jn 19:15 Jn 19:19-22 Rev 19:16 |
| 35 | for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in; | Mt 25:40 Mt 10:40-42 Mt 26:11 Dt 15:7-11 Jb 29:13-16 Jb 31:16-21 Ps 112:5-10 Pr 3:9 Pr 3:10 Pr 11:24 Pr 11:25 Pr 14:21 Pr 14:31 Pr 19:17 Pr 22:9 Ec 11:1 Ec 11:2 Isa 58:7-11 Ezk 18:7 Ezk 18:16 Dn 4:27 Mic 6:8 Mk 14:7 Lk 11:41 Lk 14:12-14 Jn 13:29 Ac 4:32 Ac 9:36-39 Ac 10:31 Ac 11:29 2Co 8:1-4 2Co 8:7-9 2Co 9:7-14 Eph 4:28 1Ti 6:17-19 Phm 1:7 Heb 6:10 Heb 13:16 Jm 1:27 1Pe 4:9 1Pe 4:10 1Jn 3:16-19 |
| 36 | naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.` | Jb 31:19 Jb 31:20 Lk 3:11 Jm 2:14-16 |
| 37 | Then the righteous will answer him, saying, `Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink? | Mt 6:3 1Ch 29:14 Pr 15:33 Isa 64:6 1Co 15:10 1Pe 5:5 1Pe 5:6 |
| 38 | When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you? |
| 39 | When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?` |
| 40 | The King will answer them, `Most assuredly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.` | Mt 25:34 Pr 25:6 Pr 25:7 |
| 41 | Then will he say also to them on the left hand, `Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; | Mt 7:23 Ps 6:8 Ps 119:115 Ps 139:19 Lk 13:27 |
| 42 | for I was hungry, and you didn`t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; | Mt 25:35 Mt 10:37 Mt 10:38 Mt 12:30 Am 6:6 Jn 5:23 Jn 8:42-44 Jn 14:21 1Co 16:22 2Th 1:8 Jm 2:15-24 1Jn 3:14-17 1Jn 4:20 |
| 43 | I was a stranger, and you didn`t take me in; naked, and you didn`t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn`t visit me.` |
| 44 | Then will they also answer, saying, `Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not help you?` | Mt 25:24-27 Mt 7:22 1Sa 15:13-15 1Sa 15:20-15 1Sa 15:21-15 Jer 2:23 Jer 2:35 Mal 1:6 Mal 2:17 Mal 3:13 Lk 10:29 |
| 45 | Then will he answer them, saying, `Most assuredly I tell you, inasmuch as you didn`t do it to one of these least, you didn`t do it to me.` | Mt 25:40 Gn 12:3 Nm 24:9 Ps 105:15 Pr 14:31 Pr 17:5 Pr 21:13 Zc 2:8 Jn 15:18 Jn 15:19 Ac 9:5 1Jn 3:12-20 1Jn 5:1-3 |
| 46 | These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life." | Mt 25:41 Dn 12:2 Mk 9:44 Mk 9:46 Mk 9:48 Mk 9:49 Lk 16:26 Jn 5:29 2Th 1:9 Rev 14:10 Rev 14:11 Rev 20:10 Rev 20:15 Rev 21:8 |
