Matthew 25:5 in context

3They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

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

6And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

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