主耶和华如此说，因非利士人向犹大人报仇，就是以恨恶的心报仇雪恨，永怀仇恨，要毁灭他们，
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because the Philistines have dealt by revenge, and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart, to destroy it for the old hatred;
我向他们大施报应，发怒斥责他们。我报复他们的时候，他们就知道我是耶和华。
And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.
那时，天国好比十个童女，拿着灯，出去迎接新郎。
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
其中有五个是愚拙的。五个是聪明的。
And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
愚拙的拿着灯，却不豫备油。

他们去买的时候，新郎到了。那豫备好了的，同他进去坐席。门就关了。
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
那领一千的，也来说，主阿，我知道你是忍心的人，没有种的地方要收割，没有散的地方要聚敛。
Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
主人回答说，你这又恶又懒的仆人，你既知道我没有种的地方要收割，没有散的地方要聚敛。
His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
