## Matthew 22:11-12 in Context (Verses 8–15 KJV)
 
 [8 ](/kjv/matthew/22/8) Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/matthew/22/9) Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/matthew/22/10) So 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.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/matthew/22/11) ¶ And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
 
 [12 ](/kjv/matthew/22/12) And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/matthew/22/13) Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast *him* into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/matthew/22/14) For many are called, but few *are* chosen.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/matthew/22/15) ¶ Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in *his* talk.
