1. Yeshua answered and spoke to them again in parables, saying,
2. “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who made a wedding feast for his son.
3. He sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they wouldn’t come.
4. Again he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who were invited, “Look, I’ve prepared my meal. My oxen and fattened cattle are killed, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding feast!”’
5. “But paying no attention, they went away, one to his own farm, another to his business.
6. And the rest grabbed his servants, humiliated them, and killed them.
7. Now the king became furious! Sending his troops, he destroyed those murderers and set fire to their city.
