Matthew 22 (WEBP)

[1] Jesus answered and spoke to them again in parables, saying,
[2] “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a wedding feast for his son,
[3] and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they would not come.
[4] Again he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding feast!” ’
[5] But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise;
[6] and the rest grabbed his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.
[7] When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
[8] “Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren’t worthy.
[9] Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the wedding feast.’
[10] Those servants went out into the highways and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. The wedding was filled with guests.
[11] “But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn’t have on wedding clothing,
[12] and he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?’ He was speechless.
[13] Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.’
[14] For many are called, but few chosen.”
[15] Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.
[16] They sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and teach the way of God in truth, no matter whom you teach; for you aren’t partial to anyone.
[17] Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
[18] But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test me, you hypocrites?
[19] Show me the tax money.” They brought to him a denarius.
[20] He asked them, “Whose is this image and inscription?”
[21] They said to him, “Caesar’s.” Then he said to them, “Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
[22] When they heard it, they marveled, and left him and went away.
[23] On that day Sadducees (those who say that there is no resurrection) came to him. They asked him,
[24] saying, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’
[25] Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother.
[26] In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
[27] After them all, the woman died.
[28] In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her.”
[29] But Jesus answered them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
[30] For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like God’s angels in heaven.
[31] But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
[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.”
[33] When the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.
[34] But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
[35] One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.
[36] “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?”
[37] Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
[38] This is the first and great commandment.
[39] A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
[40] The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
[41] Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,
[42] saying, “What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “Of David.”
[43] He said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,
[44] ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet’?
[45] “If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?”
[46] No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forward.

Matthew 22 (KJVS)

[1] And Jesus answered () and spake () unto them again by parables, and said, ()
[2] The kingdom of heaven is like () unto a certain king, which made () a marriage for his son,
[3] And sent forth () his servants to call () them that were bidden () to the wedding: and they would () not come. ()
[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.
[5] But they made light of () [it], and went their ways, () one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
[6] And the remnant took () his servants, and entreated [them] spitefully, () and slew () [them].
[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.
[8] Then saith he () to his servants, The wedding is () ready, but they which were bidden () were () not worthy.
[9] Go ye () therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, () bid () to the marriage.
[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. ()
[11] And when the king came in () to see () the guests, () he saw () there a man which had not on () a wedding garment:
[12] And he saith () unto him, Friend, how camest thou () in hither not having () a wedding garment? And he was speechless. ()
[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.
[14] For many are () called, but few [are] chosen.
[15] Then went () the Pharisees, and took () counsel how they might entangle () him in [his] talk.
[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.
[17] Tell () us therefore, What thinkest () thou? Is it lawful () to give () tribute unto Caesar, or not?
[18] But Jesus perceived () their wickedness, and said, () Why tempt ye () me, [ye] hypocrites?
[19] Shew () me the tribute money. And they brought () unto him a penny.
[20] And he saith () unto them, Whose [is] this image and superscription?
[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.
[22] When they had heard () [these words], they marvelled, () and left () him, and went their way. ()
[23] The same day came () to him the Sadducees, which say () that there is () no resurrection, and asked () him,
[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.
[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:
[26] Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
[27] And last of all the woman died () also.
[28] Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be () of the seven? for they all had () her.
[29] Jesus answered () and said () unto them, Ye do err, () not knowing () the scriptures, nor the power of God.
[30] For in the resurrection they neither marry, () nor are given in marriage, () but are () as the angels of God in heaven.
[31] But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read () that which was spoken () unto you by God, saying, ()
[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. ()
[33] And when the multitude heard () [this], they were astonished () at his doctrine.
[34] But when the Pharisees had heard () that he had put the Sadducees to silence, () they were gathered together. ()
[35] Then one of them, [which was] a lawyer, asked () [him a question], tempting () him, and saying, ()
[36] Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law?
[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.
[38] This is () the first and great commandment.
[39] And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love () thy neighbour as thyself.
[40] On these two commandments hang () all the law and the prophets.
[41] While the Pharisees were gathered together, () Jesus asked () them,
[42] Saying, () What think () ye of Christ? whose son is he? () They say () unto him, [The Son] of David.
[43] He saith () unto them, How then doth David in spirit call () him Lord, saying, ()
[44] The Lord said () unto my Lord, Sit thou () on my right hand, till I make () thine enemies thy footstool?
[45] If David then call () him Lord, how is he () his son?
[46] And no man was able () to answer () him a word, neither durst () any [man] from that day forth ask () him any more [questions].
