Matthew 22:4-14

Great(i) 4 Agayne, he sent forth other seruauntes sayinge: Tell them whych are bydden: beholde, I haue prepared my dynner: my oxen & my fatlynges are kylled, & all thinges are ready, come vnto the mariage. 5 But they made lyght of it, & went their wayes: one to his ferme place, another to hys marchaundise, 6 & the remnaunt toke his seruauntes, & intreated them shamefully and slewe them. 7 But when the kyng hearde therof, he was wroth, & sent forth his men of warre & destroyed those murtherers, and brent vp theyr cytie. 8 Then sayd he to his seruauntes: the mariage in dede is prepared. But they whych were bydden, were not worthy. 9 Goo ye therfore out into the hye wayes: & as many as ye fynde byd them to the mariage. 10 And the seruauntes went out into the hye wayes, & gathered together all, as many as they coulde fynde, both good & bad, & the weddynge was furnisshed with gestes. 11 Then the kyng came in, to se the gestes, & whan he spyed there a man, whych had not on a weddynge garment, 12 he sayd vnto hym: frende, how camest thou in hyther not hauyng a weddynge garment? And he was euen spechlesse. 13 Then sayd the king to the ministers: take & bynde him hand and fote, & cast hym into vtter darcknes there shall be wepynge & gnasshynge of teth. 14 For many be called but feaw are chosen.
