Go out and meet him!' 7 "Then all those bridesmaids roused themselves and trimmed their lamps. 8 "`Give us some of your oil,' said the foolish ones to the wise, `for our torches are going out.' 9 "`But perhaps,' replied the wise, `there will not be enough for all of us. Go to the shops rather, and buy some for yourselves.' 10 "So they went to buy. But meanwhile the bridegroom came; those bridesmaids who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet; and the door was shut. 11 "Afterwards the other bridesmaids came and cried, "`Sir, Sir, open the door to us.' 12 "`In solemn truth I tell you,' he replied, `I do not know you.' 13 "Keep awake therefore; for you know neither the day nor the hour.
