22:1 And 2532 Jesus 2424 answered 611 5679 and spake 2036 5627 unto them 846 again 3825 by 1722 parables 3850, and said 3004 5723,

22:2 The kingdom 932 of heaven 3772 is like 3666 5681 unto a certain 444 king 935, which 3748 made 4160 5656 a marriage 1062 for his 846 son 5207,

22:3 And 2532 sent forth 649 5656 his 846 servants 1401 to call 2564 5658 them that were bidden 2564 5772 to 1519 the wedding 1062: and 2532 they would 2309 5707 not 3756 come 2064 5629.

22:4 Again 3825, he sent forth 649 5656 other 243 servants 1401, saying 3004 5723, Tell 2036 5628 them which are bidden 2564 5772, Behold 2400 5628, I have prepared 2090 5656 my 3450 dinner 712: my 3450 oxen 5022 and 2532 [my] fatlings 4619 [are] killed 2380 5772, and 2532 all things 3956 [are] ready 2092: come 1205 5773 unto 1519 the marriage 1062.

22:5 But 1161 they made light of 272 5660 [it], and went their ways 565 5627, one 3303 to 1519 his 2398 farm 68, another 1161 to 1519 his 846 merchandise 1711:

22:6 And 1161 the remnant 3062 took 2902 5660 his 846 servants 1401, and entreated [them] spitefully 5195 5656, and 2532 slew 615 5656 [them].

22:7 But 1161 when the king 935 heard 191 5660 [thereof], he was wroth 3710 5681: and 2532 he sent forth 3992 5660 his 846 armies 4753, and destroyed 622 5656 those 1565 murderers 5406, and 2532 burned up 1714 5656 their 846 city 4172.

22:8 Then 5119 saith he 3004 5719 to his 846 servants 1401, 3303 The wedding 1062 is 2076 5748 ready 2092, but 1161 they which were bidden 2564 5772 were 2258 5713 not 3756 worthy 514.

22:9 Go ye 4198 5737 therefore 3767 into 1909 the highways 1327 3598, and 2532 as many as 3745 302 ye shall find 2147 5632, bid 2564 5657 to 1519 the marriage 1062.

22:10 So 2532 those 1565 servants 1401 went out 1831 5631 into 1519 the highways 3598, and gathered together 4863 5627 all 3956 as many as 3745 they found 2147 5627, both 5037 bad 4190 and 2532 good 18: and 2532 the wedding 1062 was furnished 4130 5681 with guests 345 5740.

22:11 And 1161 when 1525 0 the king 935 came in 1525 5631 to see 2300 5664 the guests 345 5740, he saw 1492 5627 there 1563 a man 444 which had 1746 0 not 3756 on 1746 5765 a wedding 1062 garment 1742:

22:12 And 2532 he saith 3004 5719 unto him 846, Friend 2083, how 4459 camest thou 1525 5627 in hither 5602 not 3361 having 2192 5723 a wedding 1062 garment 1742? And 1161 he was speechless 5392 5681.

22:13 Then 5119 said 2036 5627 the king 935 to the servants 1249, Bind 1210 5660 him 846 hand 5495 and 2532 foot 4228, and take 142 0 him 846 away 142 5657, and 2532 cast 1544 5628 [him] into 1519 outer 1857 darkness 4655; there 1563 shall be 2071 5704 weeping 2805 and 2532 gnashing 1030 of teeth 3599.

22:14 For 1063 many 4183 are 1526 5748 called 2822, but 1161 few 3641 [are] chosen 1588.

22:15 Then 5119 went 4198 5679 the Pharisees 5330, and took 2983 5627 counsel 4824 how 3704 they might entangle 3802 5661 him 846 in 1722 [his] talk 3056.

22:16 And 2532 they sent out 649 5719 unto him 846 their 846 disciples 3101 with 3326 the Herodians 2265, saying 3004 5723, Master 1320, we know 1492 5758 that 3754 thou art 1488 5748 true 227, and 2532 teachest 1321 5719 the way 3598 of God 2316 in 1722 truth 225, 2532 neither 3756 carest 3199 5719 thou 4671 for 4012 any 3762 [man]: for 1063 thou regardest 991 5719 not 1519 3756 the person 4383 of men 444.

22:17 Tell 2036 5628 us 2254 therefore 3767, What 5101 thinkest 1380 5719 thou 4671? Is it lawful 1832 5748 to give 1325 5629 tribute 2778 unto Caesar 2541, or 2228 not 3756?

22:18 But 1161 Jesus 2424 perceived 1097 5631 their 846 wickedness 4189, and said 2036 5627, Why 5101 tempt ye 3985 5719 me 3165, [ye] hypocrites 5273?

22:19 Shew 1925 5657 me 3427 the tribute 2778 money 3546. And 1161 they brought 4374 5656 unto him 846 a penny 1220.(penny: in value seven pence halfpenny)

22:20 And 2532 he saith 3004 5719 unto them 846, Whose 5101 [is] this 3778 image 1504 and 2532 superscription 1923?(superscription: or, inscription)

22:21 They say 3004 5719 unto him 846, Caesar's 2541. Then 5119 saith he 3004 5719 unto them 846, Render 591 5628 therefore 3767 unto Caesar 2541 the things which are 3588 Caesar's 2541; and 2532 unto God 2316 the things that are 3588 God's 2316.

22:22 When 2532 they had heard 191 5660 [these words], they marvelled 2296 5656, and 2532 left 863 5631 him 846, and went their way 565 5627.

22:23 The same 1722 1565 day 2250 came 4334 5656 to him 846 the Sadducees 4523, which 3588 say 3004 5723 that there is 1511 5750 no 3361 resurrection 386, and 2532 asked 1905 5656 him 846,

22:24 Saying 3004 5723, Master 1320, Moses 3475 said 2036 5627, If 1437 a man 5100 die 599 5632, having 2192 5723 no 3361 children 5043, his 846 brother 80 shall marry 1918 5692 his 846 wife 1135, and 2532 raise up 450 5692 seed 4690 unto his 846 brother 80.

22:25 Now 1161 there were 2258 5713 with 3844 us 2254 seven 2033 brethren 80: and 2532 the first 4413, when he had married a wife 1060 5660, deceased 5053 5656, and 2532, having 2192 5723 no 3361 issue 4690, left 863 5656 his 846 wife 1135 unto his 846 brother 80:

22:26 Likewise 3668 the second 1208 also 2532, and 2532 the third 5154, unto 2193 the seventh 2033.(seventh: Gr. seven)

22:27 And 1161 last 5305 of all 3956 the woman 1135 died 599 5627 also 2532.

22:28 Therefore 3767 in 1722 the resurrection 386 whose 5101 wife 1135 shall she be 2071 5704 of the seven 2033? for 1063 they all 3956 had 2192 5627 her 846.

22:29 Jesus 2424 answered 611 5679 and 1161 said 2036 5627 unto them 846, Ye do err 4105 5743, not 3361 knowing 1492 5761 the scriptures 1124, nor 3366 the power 1411 of God 2316.

22:30 For 1063 in 1722 the resurrection 386 they neither 3777 marry 1060 5719, nor 3777 are given in marriage 1547 5743, but 235 are 1526 5748 as 5613 the angels 32 of God 2316 in 1722 heaven 3772.

22:31 But 1161 as touching 4012 the resurrection 386 of the dead 3498, have ye 314 0 not 3756 read 314 5627 that which 3588 was spoken 4483 5685 unto you 5213 by 5259 God 2316, saying 3004 5723,

22:32 I 1473 am 1510 5748 the God 2316 of Abraham 11, and 2532 the God 2316 of Isaac 2464, and 2532 the God 2316 of Jacob 2384? God 2316 is 2076 5748 not 3756 the God 2316 of the dead 3498, but 235 of the living 2198 5723.

22:33 And 2532 when the multitude 3793 heard 191 5660 [this], they were astonished 1605 5712 at 1909 his 846 doctrine 1322.

22:34 But 1161 when the Pharisees 5330 had heard 191 5660 that 3754 he had put 5392 0 the Sadducees 4523 to silence 5392 5656, they were gathered together 4863 5681 1909 846.

22:35 Then 2532 one 1520 of 1537 them 846, [which was] a lawyer 3544, asked 1905 5656 [him a question], tempting 3985 5723 him 846, and 2532 saying 3004 5723,

22:36 Master 1320, which 4169 [is] the great 3173 commandment 1785 in 1722 the law 3551?

22:37 1161 Jesus 2424 said 2036 5627 unto him 846, Thou shalt love 25 5692 the Lord 2962 thy 4675 God 2316 with 1722 all 3650 thy 4675 heart 2588, and 2532 with 1722 all 3650 thy 4675 soul 5590, and 2532 with 1722 all 3650 thy 4675 mind 1271.

22:38 This 3778 is 2076 5748 the first 4413 and 2532 great 3173 commandment 1785.

22:39 And 1161 the second 1208 [is] like 3664 unto it 846 5625 3778, Thou shalt love 25 5692 thy 4675 neighbour 4139 as 5613 thyself 4572.

22:40 On 1722 these 5025 two 1417 commandments 1785 hang 2910 5743 all 3650 the law 3551 and 2532 the prophets 4396.

22:41 While 1161 the Pharisees 5330 were gathered together 4863 5772, Jesus 2424 asked 1905 5656 them 846,

22:42 Saying 3004 5723, What 5101 think 1380 5719 ye 5213 of 4012 Christ 5547? whose 5101 son 5207 is he 2076 5748? They say 3004 5719 unto him 846, [The Son] of David 1138.

22:43 He saith 3004 5719 unto them 846, How 4459 then 3767 doth David 1138 in 1722 spirit 4151 call 2564 5719 him 846 Lord 2962, saying 3004 5723,

22:44 The LORD 2962 said 2036 5627 unto my 3450 Lord 2962, Sit thou 2521 5737 on 1537 my 3450 right hand 1188, till 2193 302 I make 5087 5632 thine 4675 enemies 2190 thy 4675 footstool 5286 4228?

22:45 If 1487 David 1138 then 3767 call 2564 5719 him 846 Lord 2962, how 4459 is he 2076 5748 his 846 son 5207?

22:46 And 2532 no man 3762 was able 1410 5711 to answer 611 5677 him 846 a word 3056, neither 3761 durst 5111 5656 any 5100 [man] from 575 that 1565 day 2250 forth ask 1905 5658 him 846 any more 3765 [questions].
