¹⁷ And at the dinner hour, he sent his eved to say to the seudah invitees, Come, because everything is ready now.

¹⁸ But each began to come up with a teretz (excuse). The rishon (first) said to him, I bought a sadeh (field) and I am compelled to go out and look at it. Please be mekabel (receive, accept) my teretz.

¹⁹ And another said, I have bought chamesh pair of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please be mekabel my teretz (excuse).
