But when the king came in to see the guests, he spotted a man who was not dressed in wedding clothes.
Matthew 22:11 · BSB
The verses around it, from Matthew 22.
7 The king was enraged, and he sent his troops to destroy those murderers and burn their city.
8 Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited were not worthy.
9 Go therefore to the crossroads and invite to the banquet as many as you can find.’
10 So the servants went out into the streets and gathered everyone they could find, both evil and good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.
11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he spotted a man who was not dressed in wedding clothes.
12 ‘Friend,’ he asked, ‘how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ But the man was speechless.
13 Then the king told the servants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
14 For many are called, but few are chosen.”
15 Then the Pharisees went out and conspired to trap Jesus in His words.
