  Matthew   chapter 22

   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.
