16 Then sayde he to hym. A certayne man ordeyned a greate supper, and bade manye,
17 & sente hys seruaunte at supper tyme to saye to them that were bydden, come, for all thynges are nowe readye.
18 And they all at once began to make excuse. The fyrste sayed vnto him: I haue boughte a ferme, and muste nedes go, & se it, I pray the haue me excused.
19 And another sayed: I haue bought fyue yocke of oxen, and I go to proue them, I praye the haue me excused.
20 The thyrde sayed: I haue maryed a wyfe and therfore I can not come.
21 And the seruaunt went and brought his mayster worde therof. Then was the good man of the house displeased, and sayed to hys seruaunt: Go oute quickly into the streates and quarters of the citie, and brynge in hyther the poore, and the maymed and the halte and the blynde.
22 And the seruaunt sayde: Lorde it is done as thou commaundest, and yet there is roume.
23 And the Lorde sayd to the seruaunt: Go oute into the hygh waies, and hedges and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 For I saye vnto you that none of those men which were bydden, shall tast of my supper.
