Luke:14:15-24

*
And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things ,
he said to him ,
Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God .
*
Then said he to him ,
A certain man made a great supper ,
and bade many :
*
And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden ,
Come ;
for all things are now ready .
*
And they all with one consent began to make excuse .
The first said to him ,
I have bought a piece of ground ,
and I must needs go and see it :
I pray you have me excused .
*
And another said ,
I have bought five yoke of oxen ,
and I go to prove them :
I pray you have me excused .
*
And another said ,
I have married a wife ,
and therefore I cannot come .
*
So that servant came ,
and showed his lord these things .
Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant ,
Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city ,
and bring in here the poor ,
and the maimed ,
and the halt ,
and the blind .
*
And the servant said ,
Lord ,
it is done as you have commanded ,
and yet there is room .
*
And the lord said to the servant ,
Go out into the highways and hedges ,
and compel them to come in ,
that my house may be filled .
*
For I say to you ,
That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper .
