Matthew 22:9-14
New King James Version
9 Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding.’ 10 So those servants went out into the highways and (A)gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests.
11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there (B)who did not have on a wedding garment. 12 So he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was (C)speechless. 13 Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, [a]take him away, and cast him (D)into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
14 (E)“For many are called, but few are chosen.”
