6 et les autres se saisirent des serviteurs, les outragèrent et les tuèrent.

7 Le roi fut irrité; il envoya ses troupes, fit périr ces meurtriers, et brûla leur ville.

8 Alors il dit à ses serviteurs: Les noces sont prêtes; mais les conviés n’en étaient pas dignes.

9 Allez donc dans les carrefours, et appelez aux noces tous ceux que vous trouverez.
