Matthew
22 |
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Matthew 22:1
|
|
And Jesus
answered and spake unto them again by parables,
and said, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:2
|
|
The kingdom
of heaven is like unto a certain king, which
made a marriage for his son, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:3
|
|
And sent
forth his servants to call them that were
bidden to the wedding: and they would not
come. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:4
|
|
Again, he
sent forth other servants, saying, Tell
them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared
my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed,
and all things are ready: come unto the
marriage. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:5
|
|
But they
made light of it, and went their ways, one
to his farm, another to his merchandise: |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:6
|
|
And the
remnant took his servants, and entreated
them spitefully, and slew them. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:7
|
|
But when
the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and
he sent forth his armies, and destroyed
those murderers, and burned up their city. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:8
|
|
Then saith
he to his servants, The wedding is ready,
but they which were bidden were not worthy. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:9
|
|
Go ye therefore
into the highways, and as many as ye shall
find, bid to the marriage. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:10
|
|
So 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. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:11
|
|
And when
the king came in to see the guests, he saw
there a man which had not on a wedding garment: |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:12
|
|
And he saith
unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither
not having a wedding garment? And he was
speechless. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:13
|
|
Then said
the king to the servants, Bind him hand
and foot, and take him away, and cast him
into outer darkness, there shall be weeping
and gnashing of teeth. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:14
|
|
For many
are called, but few are chosen. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:15
|
|
Then went
the Pharisees, and took counsel how they
might entangle him in his talk. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:16
|
|
And they
sent out unto him their disciples with the
Herodians, saying, Master, we know that
thou art true, and teachest the way of God
in truth, neither carest thou for any man:
for thou regardest not the person of men. |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:17
|
|
Tell us
therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful
to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:18
|
|
But Jesus
perceived their wickedness, and said, Why
tempt ye me, ye hypocrites? |
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:19
|
|
Shew me
the tribute money. And they brought unto
him a penny. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:20
|
|
And he saith
unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:21
|
|
They say
unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them,
Render therefore unto Caesar the things
which are Caesar's; and unto God the things
that are God's. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:22
|
|
When they
had heard these words, they marvelled, and
left him, and went their way. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:23
|
|
The same
day came to him the Sadducees, which say
that there is no resurrection, and asked
him, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:24
|
|
Saying,
Master, Moses said, If a man die, having
no children, his brother shall marry his
wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:25
|
|
Now there
were with us seven brethren: and the first,
when he had married a wife, deceased, and,
having no issue, left his wife unto his
brother: |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:26
|
|
Likewise
the second also, and the third, unto the
seventh. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:27
|
|
And last
of all the woman died also. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:28
|
|
Therefore
in the resurrection whose wife shall she
be of the seven? for they all had her. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:29
|
|
Jesus answered
and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing
the scriptures, nor the power of God. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:30
|
|
For in the
resurrection they neither marry, nor are
given in marriage, but are as the angels
of God in heaven. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:31
|
|
But as touching
the resurrection of the dead, have ye not
read that which was spoken unto you by God,
saying, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:32
|
|
I am the
God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and
the God of Jacob? God is not the God of
the dead, but of the living. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:33
|
|
And when
the multitude heard this, they were astonished
at his doctrine. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:34
|
|
But when
the Pharisees had heard that he had put
the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered
together. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:35
|
|
Then one
of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a
question, tempting him, and saying, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:36
|
|
Master,
which is the great commandment in the law? |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:37
|
|
Jesus said
unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,
and with all thy mind. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:38
|
|
This is
the first and great commandment. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:39
|
|
And the
second is like unto it, Thou shalt love
thy neighbour as thyself. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:40
|
|
On these
two commandments hang all the law and the
prophets. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:41
|
|
While the
Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus
asked them, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:42
|
|
Saying,
What think ye of Christ? whose son is he?
They say unto him, The son of David. |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:43
|
|
He saith
unto them, How then doth David in spirit
call him Lord, saying, |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:44
|
|
The Lord
said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right
hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:45
|
|
If David
then call him Lord, how is he his son? |
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 22:46
|
|
And no man
was able to answer him a word, neither durst
any man from that day forth ask him any
more questions. |
