*
The kingdom of heaven is like (
5681 )
unto a certain king ,
which made (
5656 )
a marriage for his son ,
*
And sent forth (
5656 )
his servants to call (
5658 )
them that were bidden (
5772 )
to the wedding :
and they would (
5707 )
not come (
5629 ).
*
Again ,
he sent forth (
5656 )
other servants ,
saying (
5723 ),
Tell (
5628 )
them which are bidden (
5772 ),
Behold (
5628 ),
I have prepared (
5656 )
my dinner :
my oxen and my fatlings are killed (
5772 ),
and all things are ready :
come (
5773 )
unto the marriage .
*
But they made light of (
5660 )
it ,
and went their ways (
5627 ),
one to his farm ,
another to his merchandise :
*
And the remnant took (
5660 )
his servants ,
and entreated them spitefully (
5656 ),
and slew (
5656 )
them .
*
But when the king heard (
5660 )
thereof ,
he was wroth (
5681 ):
and he sent forth (
5660 )
his armies ,
and destroyed (
5656 )
those murderers ,
and burned up (
5656 )
their city .
*
Then saith he (
5719 )
to his servants ,
The wedding is (
5748 )
ready ,
but they which were bidden (
5772 )
were (
5713 )
not worthy .
*
Go ye (
5737 )
therefore into the highways ,
and as many as ye shall find (
5632 ),
bid (
5657 )
to the marriage .
*
So those servants went out (
5631 )
into the highways ,
and gathered together (
5627 )
all as many as they found (
5627 ),
both bad and good :
and the wedding was furnished (
5681 )
with guests (
5740 ).
*
And when the king came in (
5631 )
to see (
5664 )
the guests (
5740 ),
he saw (
5627 )
there a man which had not on (
5765 )
a wedding garment :
*
And he saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Friend ,
how camest thou (
5627 )
in hither not having (
5723 )
a wedding garment ?
And he was speechless (
5681 ).
*
Then said (
5627 )
the king to the servants ,
Bind (
5660 )
him hand and foot ,
and take him away (
5657 ),
and cast (
5628 )
him into outer darkness ;
there shall be (
5704 )
weeping and gnashing of teeth .
*
For many are (
5748 )
called ,
but few are chosen .
