*
And he sent his slave at the supper hour to say to those who had been invited ,
Come ,
for now all is ready .
*
And all with one mind began to beg off .
The first said to him ,
I have bought a field ,
and I have need to go out and see it ;
I ask you ,
have me excused .
*
And another said ,
I bought five yoke of oxen and I am going to try them out ;
I ask you ,
have me excused .
*
And another said ,
I married a wife ,
and for this reason I am not able to come .
*
And having come up that slave reported these things to his lord .
Then being angry ,
the housemaster said to his slave ,
Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city ,
and bring in here the poor and maimed and lame and blind ones .
*
And the slave said ,
Sir ,
it has been done as you ordered ,
and still there is room .
*
And the lord said to the slave ,
Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in ,
so that my house may be filled .
