Matthew 25:1 ASV: 


Sure, here's the ASV translation of: 
Matthew 25:1: 
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

Matthew 25:2: 
And five of them were foolish, and five were wise.

Matthew 25:3: 
For the foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them:

Matthew 25:4: 
but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

Matthew 25:5: 
Now while the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

Matthew 25:6: 
But at midnight there is a cry, Behold, the bridegroom! Come ye forth to meet him.

Matthew 25:7: 
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

Matthew 25:8: 
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are going out.

Matthew 25:9: 
But the wise answered, saying, Peradventure there will not be enough for us and you: go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

Matthew 25:10: 
And while they went away to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage feast: and the door was shut.

Matthew 25:11: 
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

Matthew 25:12: 
But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

Matthew 25:13: 
Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour.

Matthew 25:14: 
For `it is' as `when' a man, going into another country, called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

Matthew 25:15: 
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his several ability; and he went on his journey.

Matthew 25:16: 
Straightway he that received the five talents went and traded with them, and made other five talents.

Matthew 25:17: 
In like manner he also that `received' the two gained other two.

Matthew 25:18: 
But he that received the one went away and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

Matthew 25:19: 
Now after a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and maketh a reckoning with them.

Matthew 25:20: 
And he that received the five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: lo, I have gained other five talents.

Matthew 25:21: 
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Matthew 25:22: 
And he also that `received' the two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: lo, I have gained other two talents.

Matthew 25:23: 
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Matthew 25:24: 
And he also that had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow, and gathering where thou didst not scatter;

Matthew 25:25: 
and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, thou hast thine own.

Matthew 25:26: 
But 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 did not scatter;

Matthew 25:27: 
thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest.

Matthew 25:28: 
Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.

Matthew 25:29: 
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away.

Matthew 25:30: 
And cast ye out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 25:31: 
But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory:

Matthew 25:32: 
and before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats;

Matthew 25:33: 
and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

Matthew 25:34: 
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

Matthew 25:35: 
for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in;

Matthew 25:36: 
naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Matthew 25:37: 
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink?

Matthew 25:38: 
And when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

Matthew 25:39: 
And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

Matthew 25:40: 
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, `even' these least, ye did it unto me.

Matthew 25:41: 
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels:

Matthew 25:42: 
for I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink;

Matthew 25:43: 
I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

Matthew 25:44: 
Then shall they also answer, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

Matthew 25:45: 
Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me.

Matthew 25:46: 
And these shall go away into eternal punishment: but the righteous into eternal life.
