Matthew 22:2The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,Matthew 22:3And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.Matthew 22:4Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.Matthew 22:8Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.Matthew 22:9Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.Matthew 22:10So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.Matthew 22:11And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:Matthew 22:12And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.Matthew 25:10And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.Luke 12:36And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
