Matthew 22 — GNV
22Verse 1Then Iesus answered, and spake vnto them againe in parables, saying,Verse 2The kingdome of heauen is like vnto a certaine King which maried his sonne,Verse 3And sent foorth his seruants, to call them that were bidde to the wedding, but they woulde not come.Verse 4Againe hee sent foorth other seruants, saying. Tell them which are bidden, Beholde, I haue prepared my dinner: mine oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all thinges are readie: come vnto the mariage.Verse 5But they made light of it, and went their wayes, one to his farme, and another about his marchandise.Verse 6And the remnant tooke his seruants, and intreated them sharpely, and slewe them.Verse 7But when the King heard it, he was wroth, and sent foorth his warriers, and destroyed those murtherers, and burnt vp their citie.Verse 8Then saide hee to his seruants, Truely the wedding is prepared: but they which were bidden, were not worthy.Verse 9Go ye therefore out into the high wayes, and as many as ye finde, bid them to the mariage.Verse 10So those seruantes went out into the hie wayes, and gathered together all that euer they found, both good and bad: so the wedding was furnished with ghestes.Verse 11Then the King came in, to see the ghestes, and sawe there a man which had not on a wedding garment.Verse 12And he sayd vnto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither, and hast not on a wedding garment? And he was speachlesse.Verse 13Then sayd the King to the seruants, Binde him hand and foote: take him away, and cast him into vtter darkenes: there shalbe weeping and gnashing of teeth.Verse 14For many are called, but fewe chosen.Verse 15Then went the Pharises and tooke counsell how they might tangle him in talke.Verse 16And they sent vnto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we knowe that thou art true, and teachest the way of God truely, neither carest for any man: for thou considerest not the person of men.Verse 17Tell vs therefore, how thinkest thou? Is it lawfull to giue tribute vnto Cesar, or not?Verse 18But Iesus perceiued their wickednes, and sayd, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?Verse 19Shewe me the tribute money. And they brought him a peny.Verse 20And he sayde vnto them, Whose is this image and superscription?Verse 21They sayd vnto him, Cesars. Then sayd he vnto them, Giue therefore to Cesar, the things which are Cesars, and giue vnto God, those things which are Gods.Verse 22And when they heard it, they marueiled, and left him, and went their way.Verse 23The same day the Sadduces came to him (which say that there is no resurrection) and asked him,Verse 24Saying, Master, Moses sayd, If a man die, hauing no children, his brother shall marie his wife by the right of alliance, and raise vp seede vnto his brother.Verse 25Nowe there were with vs seuen brethren, and the first maried a wife, and deceased: and hauing none yssue, left his wife vnto his brother.Verse 26Likewise also the second, and the third, vnto the seuenth.Verse 27And last of all the woman died also.Verse 28Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife shall she be of the seuen? for all had her.Verse 29Then Iesus answered, and sayd vnto them, Ye are deceiued, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.Verse 30For in the resurrection they neither marie wiues, nor wiues are bestowed in mariage, but are as the Angels of God in heauen.Verse 31And concerning the resurrection of the dead, haue ye not read what is spoken vuto you of God, saying,Verse 32I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the liuing.Verse 33And when the multitude heard it, they were astonied at his doctrine.Verse 34But when the Pharises had heard, that he had put the Sadduces to silence, they assembled together.Verse 35And one of them, which was an expounder of the Lawe, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,Verse 36Master, which is ye great commandement in the Lawe?Verse 37Iesus sayd to him, Thou shalt loue the Lord thy God with all thine heart, with all thy soule, and with all thy minde.Verse 38This is the first and the great commandement.Verse 39And the second is like vnto this, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe.Verse 40On these two commandements hangeth the whole Lawe, and the Prophets.Verse 41While the Pharises were gathered together, Iesus asked them,Verse 42Saying, What thinke ye of Christ? whose sonne is he? They sayd vnto him, Dauids.Verse 43He sayd vnto them, How then doeth Dauid in spirit call him Lord, saying,Verse 44The Lord sayd to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footestoole?Verse 45If then Dauid call him Lord, howe is he his sonne?Verse 46And none could answere him a worde, neither durst any from that day foorth aske him any moe questions.
