Matthew 22:3-9

3AndG2532 sent forthG649 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401 to callG2564 them that were biddenG2564 toG1519 the weddingG3588G1062: andG2532 they wouldG2309 notG3756 comeG2064.

4AgainG3825, he sent forthG649 otherG243 servantsG1401, sayingG3004, TellG3004 them which are biddenG2564, BeholdG3708, I have preparedG2090 myG1473 dinnerG3588G712: myG1473 oxenG3588G5022 andG2532 my fatlingsG4619 are killedG2380, andG2532 all thingsG3956 are readyG2092: comeG1205 untoG1519 the marriageG3588G1062.

5ButG1161 they made light ofG3588G272 it, and went their waysG565, oneG3588G3303 toG1519 hisG3588G2398 farmG68, anotherG3588G1161 toG1519 hisG846 merchandiseG3588G1711:

6AndG1161 the remnantG3062 tookG2902 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401, and entreatedG5195 them spitefullyG5195, andG2532 slewG615 them.

7ButG1161 whenG191 the kingG3588G935 heardG191 thereof, he was wrothG3710: andG2532 he sent forthG3992 hisG846 armiesG3588G4753, and destroyedG622 thoseG1565 murderersG3588G5406, andG2532 burned upG1714 theirG846 cityG3588G4172.

8ThenG5119 saith heG3004 toG3588G1401 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401, The weddingG1062 isG1510 readyG2092, butG1161 they which were biddenG2564 wereG1510 notG3756 worthyG514.

9Go yeG4198 thereforeG3767 intoG1909 the highwaysG3588G3598, andG2532 as manyG3745 asG302 ye shall findG2147, bidG2564 toG1519 the marriageG3588G1062.
