The kingdom of the heavens has become like a king who made a wedding feast for his son,

and sent his bondmen to call the persons invited to the wedding feast, and they would not come.

Again he sent other bondmen, saying, Say to the persons invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fatted beasts are killed, and all things ready; come to the wedding feast.

Then he says to his bondmen, The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy;

go therefore into the thoroughfares of the highways, and as many as ye shall find invite to the wedding feast.

And those bondmen went out into the highways, and brought together all as many as they found, both evil and good; and the wedding feast was furnished with guests.

But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the ones that were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.

but they said, Not in the feast, that there be not a tumult among the people.

Now on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?

Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd, whom they would.
