The Great Supper

[Sword44]

Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade
many: And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were
bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.

And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said
unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see
it: I pray thee have me excused.

And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove
them: I pray thee have me excused.

And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the
master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly
into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor,
and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.

And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet
there is room. And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the
highways and hedges, and compel [them] to come in, that my house may
be filled. For I say unto you, That none of those men which were
bidden shall taste of my supper.

Luke 14:16-24
