“At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten girls who went to wait for the bridegroom. They took their lamps with them. Five of the girls were foolish and five were wise. The five foolish girls took their lamps, but they did not take more oil for the lamps to burn. The wise girls took their lamps and more oil in jars. The bridegroom was very late. All the girls became sleepy and went to sleep. “At midnight someone cried out, ‘The bridegroom is coming! Come and meet him!’ Then all the girls woke up and got their lamps ready. But the foolish girls said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil. Our lamps are going out.’ The wise girls answered, ‘No! The oil we have might not be enough for all of us. Go to the people who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’ “So the five foolish girls went to buy oil. While they were gone, the bridegroom came. The girls who were ready went in with the bridegroom to the wedding feast. Then the door was closed and locked. “Later the others came back. They called, ‘Sir, sir, open the door to let us in.’ But the bridegroom answered, ‘I tell you the truth, I don’t know you.’ “So always be ready. You don’t know the day or the time the Son of Man will come. Matthew 25:1-13 ICB http://bible.com/1359/mat.25.1-13.ICB
