3 And he sent his servants to those having been called to the nuptial feast: and they would not come.

4 And again, he sent other servants, saying, Say to the called: Behold, I have prepared my supper; my bulls and stall-fed killed, and all prepared: come to the nuptials.

5 And they, not having heeded, departed, one truly to his own field, and one to his traffic:

6 And the rest, having seized his servants, were insolent, and killed them.

7 And the king, having heard, was angry, and having sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.

8 Then says he to his servants, Truly the nuptial feast is prepared, and those called were not worthy.

9 Go ye, therefore, to the passages of the ways, and as many as ye should find, call to the nuptial feast.
