2 "The kingdom of heaven is like a king who arranged a marriage for his son,
3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; but they were not willing to come.
4 Again, he sent out other servants, saying, 'Tell those who are invited, "See, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding.'"
5 But they made light of it and went off, one to his own farm, another to his business.
6 And the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.
7 The king was enraged. He sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.
8 Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy.
9 Go therefore to the highways, and invite to the marriage feast as many as you find.'
10 And those servants went out into the streets and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good; so the wedding hall was filled with guests.
11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment.
12 And he said to him, 'Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?' And he was speechless.
13 Then the king said to the attendants, 'Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into the outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
14 For many are called, but few are chosen."
