(2)The kingdom of heaven is like to a certain king, who made a marriage for his son. (3)And he sent forth his servants to call those who were bidden to the wedding; and they would not come. (4)Again he sent forth other servants, saying: Tell those who are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready; come to the marriage. (5)But they made light of it, and went away, one to his farm, another to his merchandise. (6)And the rest laid hold of his servants, and ill-treated and slew them. (7)And the king, hearing it, was angry; and sending forth his armies, he destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. (8)Then he says to his servants: The wedding is ready, but they who were bidden were not worthy. (9)Go therefore into the thoroughfares, and as many as ye find, bid to the marriage. (10)And those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good; and the wedding was furnished with guests. (11)And the king, coming in to view the guests, saw there a man not clothed with a wedding garment; (12)and he says to him: Friend, how camest thou in hither, not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. (13)Then the king said to the attendants: Bind him hand and foot, and cast him forth into the outer darkness. There will be the weeping, and the gnashing of teeth! (14)For many are called, but few are chosen. (15)Then the Pharisees went and took counsel, how they might ensnare him with a word[22:15]. (16)And they send out to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying: Teacher, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth; neither carest thou for any one, for thou regardest not the person of men. (17)Tell us, therefore, what thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? (18)But Jesus, knowing their wickedness, said: Why tempt ye me, hypocrites! (19)Show me the tribute money. And they brought to him a denary[22:19]. (20)And he says to them: Whose is this image, and the inscription? (21)They say to him: Caesar's. Then says he to them; Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. (22)And hearing it they wondered, and left him and went away. (23)On that day came to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, and asked him, (24)saying: Teacher, Moses said, If any one die having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed to his brother. (25)Now there were with us seven brothers; and the first married and died, and having no seed left his wife to his brother. (26)Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh. (27)And last of all the woman died also. (28)In the resurrection therefore, of which of the seven shall she be wife? For they all had her.
