So his father went down to the woman. And Samson gave a feast there, for young men usually did this.

And it happened, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.

She shall be brought to the King in clothing of needlework; the virgins, her companions who follow, shall be brought to You.

His left hand is under my head, and his right hand embraces me.

I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the does of the field, that you do not stir up nor awaken love until it pleases.

He made its pillars of silver, its support of gold, its seat of purple; its interior paved with love by the daughters of Jerusalem.

Go forth, O daughters of Zion, and see King Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him on his wedding day, the day of the gladness of his heart.

I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem: If you find my beloved, that you tell him I am lovesick!

Daughters of Jerusalem: Where has your beloved gone, O most beautiful among women? Where has your beloved turned aside, that we may seek him with you?

Then the kingdom of Heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them,

But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all nodded and fell asleep.

Then all those virgins arose and prepared their lamps.

But the wise answered, saying, No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.

Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.

And he said to me, Write: Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he says to me, These are the true sayings of God.

Listen, O daughter, consider and extend your ear; forget your own people also, and your father's house.

And the daughter of Tyre shall come with a gift; even the rich among the peoples shall entreat your face.

She shall be brought to the King in clothing of needlework; the virgins, her companions who follow, shall be brought to You.

In the place of your fathers shall be your sons, whom you will make princes in all the earth.

For your Maker is your husband; Jehovah of Hosts is His name; and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. He shall be called, GOD OF THE WHOLE EARTH.

For as a young man marries a virgin, so shall your sons marry you; and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so will your God rejoice over you.

Jehovah your God is mighty in your midst; He will save. He will rejoice over you with joy; He will quiet you in His love. He rejoices over you with joyful praise.

The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a wedding feast for his son,

He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled.

For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, to present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,

that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.
