Again he sent forth other servants, saying, `Tell those who are invited, "Behold, I have made ready my dinner. My oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast."`
5
But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise,
6
and the rest grabbed his servants, and treated them shamefully, and killed them.
7
But the king was angry, and he sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
8
Then he said to his servants, `The wedding is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy.
9
Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the marriage feast.`
10
Those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. The wedding was filled with guests.
11
But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn`t have on wedding-clothing,
12
and he said to him, `Friend, how did you come in here not having wedding-clothing?` He was speechless.
13
Then the king said to the servants, `Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.`

For many are called, but few chosen."
