* And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables , and said , * The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king , which made a marriage for his son , * And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding : and they would not come . * 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 . * But they made light of it , and went their ways , one to his farm , another to his merchandise : * And the remnant took his servants , and entreated them spitefully , and slew them . * But when the king heard thereof , he was wroth : and he sent forth his armies , and destroyed those murderers , and burned up their city . * Then saith he to his servants , The wedding is ready , but they which were bidden were not worthy . * Go ye therefore into the highways , and as many as ye shall find , bid to the marriage . * 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 .
