Matthew 22:7

5 But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business.

6 And the rest seized his servants, treated them¹ spitefully, and killed them.

7 But when the king heard about it, he was furious. And he sent out ^ahis armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

8 Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not ^aworthy.

9 Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding.’
