16But He said to him, 'A man was giving a big dinner, and he invited many; 17and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, because everything is ready now.’ 18And yet they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I purchased a field and I need to go out to look at it; please consider me excused.’

The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.
