Matthew 22:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² He said, ‘This is what the kingdom of heaven is like. A king prepared a special meal for his son's marriage. ³ He asked many people to come. When the meal was ready, he sent his servants out to tell those people to come. But they refused to come.

⁴ So the king then sent out other servants. He said to them, “Tell this message to all those people that I have asked to come. Tell them that the master says, ‘My servants have prepared the meal. They have killed my large oxen and some fat young cows to eat. Everything is ready. Now come to the marriage party!’ ”
