2The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who made a feast when his son was married,
3And sent out his servants to get in the guests to the feast: and they would not come.
4Again he sent out other servants, with orders to say to the guests, See, I have made ready my feast: my oxen and my fat beasts have been put to death, and all things are ready: come to the feast.
5But they gave no attention, and went about their business, one to his farm, another to his trade:
6And the rest put violent hands on his servants, and did evil to them, and put them to death.
7But the king was angry; and he sent his armies, and those who had put his servants to death he gave to destruction, burning down their town with fire.
8Then he said to his servants, The feast is ready but the guests were not good enough.
