3He sent his slaves to summon those who had been invited to the banquet, but they would not come.
4Again he sent other slaves, saying,‘Tell those who have been invited,“Look! The feast I have prepared for you is ready. My oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.”’
5But they were indifferent and went away, one to his farm, another to his business.
6The rest seized his slaves, insolently mistreated them, and killed them.
7The king was furious! He sent his soldiers, and they put those murderers to death and set their city on fire.
8Then he said to his slaves,‘The wedding is ready, but the ones who had been invited were not worthy.
9So go into the main streets and invite everyone you find to the wedding banquet.’
11But when the king came in to see the wedding guests, he saw a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.
12And he said to him,‘Friend, how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ But he had nothing to say.
13Then the king said to his attendants,‘Tie him up hand and foot and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!’

22Then the slave said,‘Sir, what you instructed has been done, and there is still room.’

24For I tell you, not one of those individuals who were invited will taste my banquet!’”

7On Seeking Seats of Honor Then when Jesus noticed how the guests chose the places of honor, he told them a parable. He said to them,
8“When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, because a person more distinguished than you may have been invited by your host.
9So the host who invited both of you will come and say to you,‘Give this man your place.’ Then, ashamed, you will begin to move to the least important place.
10But when you are invited, go and take the least important place, so that when your host approaches he will say to you,‘Friend, move up here to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who share the meal with you.
