3
And he sent his servants to call them that were invited to the marriage: and they would not come.
4
Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell them that were invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my beeves and fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come ye to the marriage.
5
But they neglected and went their ways, one to his farm and another to his merchandise.
6
And the rest laid hands on his servants and, having treated them contumeliously, put them to death.
7
But when the king had heard of it, he was angry: and sending his armies, he destroyed those murderers and burnt their city.
8
Then he saith to his servants: The marriage indeed is ready; but they that were invited were not worthy.
9
Go ye therefore into the highways; and as many as you shall find, call to the marriage.
10
And his servants going forth into the ways, gathered together all that they found, both bad and good: and the marriage was filled with guests.
11
And the king went in to see the guests: and he saw there a man who had not on a wedding garment.
12
And he saith to him: Friend, how camest thou in hither not having on a wedding garment? But he was silent.
13
Then the king said to the waiters: Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the exterior darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
