kjv@Matthew:22:1 @ And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
kjv@Matthew:22:2 @ The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
kjv@Matthew:22:3 @ And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
kjv@Matthew:22:4 @ Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
kjv@Matthew:22:5 @ But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
kjv@Matthew:22:6 @ And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
kjv@Matthew:22:7 @ But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
kjv@Matthew:22:8 @ Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
kjv@Matthew:22:9 @ Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
kjv@Matthew:22:10 @ So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
kjv@Matthew:22:11 @ And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
kjv@Matthew:22:12 @ And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
kjv@Matthew:22:13 @ Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
kjv@Matthew:22:14 @ For many are called, but few are chosen.
