往沽時、新娶者至、有備者同入婚筵、而門閉矣、

往沽時、新娶者至、有備者同入昏筵、而門閉矣、

適往購時、新娶者至、有備者同入婚筵、而門閉矣、

方往沽、而新壻至矣。有備者偕入、同赴婚筵、戶遂扃。

“ But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

The owner of the house will get up and close the door. Then you will stand outside knocking and begging. You will say,‘ Sir, open the door for us.’“ But he will answer,‘ I don’t know you. And I don’t know where you come from.’

Let the person who does wrong keep on doing wrong. Let the evil person continue to be evil. Let the person who does right keep on doing what is right. And let the holy person continue to be holy.”“ Look! I am coming soon! I bring my rewards with me. I will reward each person for what they have done.

God promised that those people would never enjoy the rest he planned for them. God gave his word when he made that promise. Didn’t he make that promise to those who didn’t obey?So we see that they weren’t able to enter. That’s because they didn’t believe.

Jesus is a witness about these things. He says,“ Yes. I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!

So when I was angry, I made a promise. I said,‘ They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.’ ”

The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five.‘ Master,’ he said,‘ you trusted me with five bags of gold. See, I have earned five more.’“ His master replied,‘ You have done well, good and faithful slave! You have been faithful with a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’“ The man with two bags of gold also came.‘ Master,’ he said,‘ you trusted me with two bags of gold. See, I have earned two more.’“ His master replied,‘ You have done well, good and faithful slave! You have been faithful with a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’

“ At midnight someone cried out,‘ Here’s the groom! Come out to meet him!’

So tell them,‘ Here is what I am announcing. I am the Lord. You can be sure that I live. And here is what you can be just as sure of. I will do to you the very thing that I heard you say.You will die in this desert. Every one of you 20 years old or more will die. Every one of you who was counted in the list of the people will die. Every one of you who has spoken out against me will be wiped out.I lifted up my hand and promised to make this land your home. But now not all of you will enter the land. Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, will enter it. So will Joshua, the son of Nun. They are the only ones who will enter the land.You have said that your enemies would capture your children. But I will bring your children in to enjoy the land you have turned your backs on.As for you, you will die in the desert.Your children will be shepherds here for 40 years. They will suffer because you were not faithful. They will suffer until the last of your bodies lies here in the desert.For 40 years you will suffer for your sins. That is one year for each of the 40 days you checked out the land. You will know what it is like to have me against you.’

The animals going in were male and female of every living thing. Everything happened just as God had commanded Noah. Then the Lord shut him in.

Be like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding dinner. When he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready when he comes. What I’m about to tell you is true. The master will then dress himself so he can serve them. He will have them take their places at the table. And he will come and wait on them.

People will wander from the Dead Sea to the Mediterranean. They will travel from north to east. They will look for a message from me. But they will not find it.“ At that time“ the lovely young women and strong young men will faint because they are so thirsty.

Now there is a crown waiting for me. It is given to those who are right with God. The Lord, who judges fairly, will give it to me on the day he returns. He will not give it only to me. He will also give it to all those who are longing for him to return.

We want you to give thanks with joy to the Father. He has made you fit to have what he will give to all his holy people. You will all receive a share in the kingdom of light.

“ Look! He is coming with the clouds!”( Daniel 7:13)“ Every eye will see him. Even those who pierced him will see him.” All the nations of the earth“ will mourn because of him.”( Zechariah 12:10) This will really happen! Amen.

So be watchful, and control yourselves completely. In this way, put your hope in the grace that lies ahead. This grace will be brought to you when Jesus Christ returns.

So you also must be ready. The Son of Man will come at an hour when you don’t expect him.
