Matthew 22:2-13

2“1The kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 2may be comparedG3666 to 3a kingG444G935 whoG3748 4gaveG4160 a 5weddingG1062 feastG1062 for his sonG5207. 3And he 6sentG649 out his slavesG1401 to callG2564 thoseG3588 who had been invitedG2564 to the weddingG1062 feastG1062, and they were unwillingG3756G2309 to comeG2064. 4AgainG3825 he 7sentG649 out otherG243 slavesG1401 sayingG3004, ‘TellG3004 thoseG3588 who have been invitedG2564, “BeholdG2400, I have preparedG2090 my dinnerG712; my oxenG5022 and my fattenedG4619 livestockG4619 are all butcheredG2380 and everythingG3956 is readyG2092; comeG1205 to the weddingG1062 feastG1062.”’ 5But they paidG272 noG272 attentionG272 and wentG565 their wayG565, oneG3739 to his ownG2398 8farmG68, anotherG3739G1161 to his businessG1171, 6and the restG3062 seizedG2902 his slavesG1401 and mistreatedG5195 them and killedG615 them. 7But the kingG935 was enragedG3710, and he sentG3992 his armiesG4753 and destroyedG622 thoseG1565 murderersG5406 and setG1705 their cityG4172 on fireG1705. 8ThenG5119 he saidG3004 to his slavesG1401, ‘The weddingG1062 is readyG2092, but thoseG3588 who were invitedG2564 were not worthyG514. 9GoG4198 thereforeG3767 to 9the mainG1327 highwaysG3598, and as manyG3745 as you findG2147 there, inviteG2564 to the weddingG1062 feastG1062.’ 10ThoseG1565 slavesG1401 wentG1831 out into the streetsG3598 and gatheredG4863 togetherG4863 allG3956 they foundG2147, bothG5037 evilG4190 and goodG18; and the weddingG3567 hallG3567 was filledG4092 with 10dinnerG345 guestsG345.

11“But when the kingG935 cameG1525 in to lookG2300 overG2300 the dinnerG345 guestsG345, he sawG3708 11a manG444 thereG1563 who was not dressedG1746 in weddingG1062 clothesG1742, 12and he saidG3004 to him, ‘12FriendG2083, howG4459 did you comeG1525 in hereG5602 withoutG3361G2192 weddingG1062 clothesG1742?’ And the man was speechlessG5392. 13ThenG5119 the kingG935 saidG3004 to the servantsG1249, ‘BindG1210 him handG5495 and footG4228, and throwG1544 him into 13the outerG1857 darknessG4655; in that placeG1563 thereG1563 will be weepingG2805 and gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.’
