The New Testament of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.: The common English version, corrected by the final committee of the American Bible Union.
Bible. New Testament
(20)And watching him[20:20], they sent forth spies, feigning
themselves to be just men, that they might take hold of his words, in
order to deliver him up to the magistracy, and to the authority of the
governor. (21)And they asked him, saying: Teacher, we know that thou
sayest and teachest rightly, and regardest not the person of any, but
teachest the way of God truly. (22)Is it lawful that we should give
tribute to Caesar, or not? (23)And perceiving their craftiness, he
said to them: (24)Show me a denary[20:24]. Whose image and inscription
has it? And answering they said: Caesar's. (25)And he said to them:
Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God
the things that are God's. (26)And they could not take hold of his
words before the people; and they marveled at his answer, and held
their peace.
(27)And some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection,
coming to him, asked him, (28)saying: Teacher, Moses wrote to us, if a
man's brother die, having a wife, and he die childless, that his
brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
(29)There were therefore seven brothers; and the first took a wife,
and died childless; (30)and the second and the third took her; (31)and
in like manner also the seven left no children, and died. (32)At last
the woman also died. (33)In the resurrection, therefore, of which of
them is she wife? For the seven had her for a wife.
(34)And Jesus answering said to them: The sons of this world marry,
and are given in marriage. (35)But they who are accounted worthy to
obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry,
nor are given in marriage; (36)for neither can they die any more; for
they are equal to the angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the
resurrection.
(37)Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, at The Bush, when
he calls the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob. (38)For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living;
for to him all live.
(39)And some of the scribes answering said: Teacher, thou saidst well.
(40)For they no longer dared to ask him any question.
(41)And he said to them: How say they that the Christ is son of David?
(42)And David himself says in the book of Psalms:
The LORD said to my Lord,
Sit on my right hand,
(43)Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
(44)David therefore calls him Lord, and how is he his son?
(45)And in the hearing of all the multitude, he said to his disciples:
(46)Beware of the scribes, who desire to go about in long robes, and
love greetings in the markets, and the first seats in the synagogues,
and the first places at feasts; (47)who devour widows' houses, and for
a pretense make long prayers. These shall receive greater
condemnation.
