4. Again, he sent other servants, saying, Tell them who are invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come to the marriage.
5. But they made light of it, and went, one to his farm, another to his merchandise.
6. And the remnant took his servants, and treated them spitefully, and slew them.
7. But when the king heard of it, he was wroth: and he sent his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
8. Then he saith to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy.
9. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, invite to the marriage.
10. So those servants went out into the highways, and collected all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
11. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who had not a wedding-garment:
12. And he saith to him, Friend, how camest thou in hither, not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless.
13. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into utter darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14. For many are called, but few are chosen.
15. Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
