Come to the wedding feast.”’</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23875" class="text Matt-22-5"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">5 </sup>But they paid no attention and went off, one to his farm, another to his business,</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23876" class="text Matt-22-6"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">6 </sup>while the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23877" class="text Matt-22-7"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">7 </sup>The king was angry, and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23878" class="text Matt-22-8"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">8 </sup>Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy.</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23879" class="text Matt-22-9"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">9 </sup>Go therefore to the main roads and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.’</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23880" class="text Matt-22-10"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">10 </sup>And those servants went out into the roads and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good. So the wedding hall was filled with guests.</span></span></p> <p><span id="en-ESV-23881" class="text Matt-22-11"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">11 </sup>“But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment.</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23882" class="text Matt-22-12"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">12 </sup>And he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless.</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23883" class="text Matt-22-13"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">13 </sup>Then the king said to the attendants, ‘Bind him hand and foot and cast him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’</span></span> <span id="en-ESV-23884" class="text Matt-22-14"><span class="woj"><sup class="versenum">14 </sup>For many are called, but few are chosen.”</span></span></p> <p><strong>What do you think? </strong><br> <strong>Comment on this episode at <a href="http://dailydevotionalpodcast.com/podcast/matthew-221-14/">http://dailydevotionalpodcast.com/podcast/matthew-221-14/</a>. </strong><br> <strong>Email me with comments, feedback, or prayer requests at <a href="mailto:dailydevotionalpodcast@gmail.com">dailydevotionalpodcast@gmail.com</a> and you can follow me on Twitter <a href="http://twitter.com/devotionpodcast">@devotionpodcast</a>.
