Neither be ye called masters: for one is your master, even the Christ.

The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,

and sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the marriage feast: and they would not come.

Again he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them that are bidden, Behold, I have made ready my dinner; my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come to the marriage feast.

Go ye therefore unto the partings of the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage feast.

And while they went away to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage feast: and the door was shut.

But they said, Not during the feast, lest a tumult arise among people.

Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would.
