- He went to the first, he said to him: 'My master invites thee.' He said: 'I have some claims against some merchants; they will come to me in the evening; I will go and give them my orders. I pray to be excused from the dinner.'
- He went to another, he said to him: 'My master has invited thee.' He said to him: 'I have bought a house and they request me for a day. I will have no time.'
- He came to another, he said to him: 'My master invites thee.' He said to him: 'My friend is to be married and I am to arrange a dinner; I shall not be able to come. I pray to be excused from the dinner.'
- He went to another, he said to him: 'my master invites thee.' he said to him: 'I have bought a farm, I go to collect the rent. I shall not be able to come. I pray to be excused.'
- The servant came, he said to his master: 'Those whom thou hast invited to the dinner have excused themselves.'
