¹ And ^G2532 it came to pass, ^G1096 that on ^G1722 one ^G3391 of those ^G1565 days, ^G2250 as he ^G846 taught ^G1321 the people ^G2992 in ^G1722 the temple, ^G2411 and ^G2532 preached the gospel, ^G2097 the chief priests ^G749 and ^G2532 the scribes ^G1122 came upon ^G2186 him with ^G4862 the elders, ^G4245

² And ^G2532 spake ^G2036 unto ^G4314 him, ^G846 saying, ^G3004 Tell ^G2036 us, ^G2254 by ^G1722 what ^G4169 authority ^G1849 doest thou ^G4160 these things? ^G5023 or ^G2228 who ^G5101 is he ^G2076 that gave ^G1325 thee ^G4671 this ^G5026 authority? ^G1849

³ And ^G1161 he answered ^G611 and said ^G2036 unto ^G4314 them, ^G846 I ^G2504 will ^G2065 also ^G2504 ask ^G2065 you ^G5209 one ^G1520 thing; ^G3056 and ^G2532 answer ^G2036 me: ^G3427

⁴ The baptism ^G908 of John, ^G2491 was it ^G2258 from ^G1537 heaven, ^G3772 or ^G2228 of ^G1537 men? ^G444

⁵ And ^G1161 they reasoned ^G4817 with ^G4314 themselves, ^G1438 saying, ^{G3004 G3754} If ^G1437 we shall say, ^G2036 From ^G1537 heaven; ^G3772 he will say, ^G2046 Why ^G1302 then ^G3767 believed ye ^G4100 him ^G846 not? ^G3756

⁶ But and ^G1161 if ^G1437 we say, ^G2036 Of ^G1537 men; ^G444 all ^G3956 the people ^G2992 will stone ^G2642 us: ^G2248 for ^G1063 they be ^G2076 persuaded ^G3982 that John ^G2491 was ^G1511 a prophet. ^G4396

⁷ And ^G2532 they answered, ^G611 that they could ^G1492 not ^G3361 tell ^G1492 whence ^G4159 it was.

⁸ And ^G2532 Jesus ^G2424 said ^G2036 unto them, ^G846 Neither ^G3761 tell ^G3004 I ^G1473 you ^G5213 by ^G1722 what ^G4169 authority ^G1849 I do ^G4160 these things. ^G5023

⁹ Then ^G1161 began he ^G756 to speak ^G3004 to ^G4314 the people ^G2992 this ^G5026 parable; ^G3850 A certain ^G5100 man ^G444 planted ^G5452 a vineyard, ^G290 and ^G2532 let ^G1554 it ^G846 forth ^G1554 to husbandmen, ^G1092 and ^G2532 went into a far country ^G589 for a long ^G2425 time. ^G5550

¹⁰ And ^G2532 at ^G1722 the season ^G2540 he sent ^G649 a servant ^G1401 to ^G4314 the husbandmen, ^G1092 that ^G2443 they should give ^G1325 him ^G846 of ^G575 the fruit ^G2590 of the vineyard: ^G290 but ^G1161 the husbandmen ^G1092 beat ^G1194 him, ^G846 and sent him away ^G1821 empty. ^G2756

¹¹ And ^G2532 again ^G4369 he sent ^G3992 another ^G2087 servant: ^G1401 and ^G1161 they beat ^G1194 him also, ^G2548 and ^G2532 entreated him shamefully, ^G818 and sent him away ^G1821 empty. ^G2756

¹² And ^G2532 again ^G4369 he sent ^G3992 a third: ^G5154 and ^G1161 they wounded ^G5135 him ^G5126 also, ^G2532 and cast him out. ^G1544

¹³ Then ^G1161 said ^G2036 the lord ^G2962 of the vineyard, ^G290 What ^G5101 shall I do? ^G4160 I will send ^G3992 my ^G3450 beloved ^G27 son: ^G5207 it may be ^G2481 they will reverence ^G1788 him when they see ^G1492 him. ^G5126

¹⁴ But ^G1161 when the husbandmen ^G1092 saw ^G1492 him, ^G846 they reasoned ^G1260 among ^G4314 themselves, ^G1438 saying, ^G3004 This ^G3778 is ^G2076 the heir: ^G2818 come, ^G1205 let us kill ^G615 him, ^G846 that ^G2443 the inheritance ^G2817 may be ^G1096 ours. ^G2257

¹⁵ So ^G2532 they cast ^G1544 him ^G846 out of ^G1854 the vineyard, ^G290 and killed ^G615 him. What ^G5101 therefore ^G3767 shall ^G4160 the lord ^G2962 of the vineyard ^G290 do ^G4160 unto them? ^G846

¹⁶ He shall come ^G2064 and ^G2532 destroy ^G622 these ^G5128 husbandmen, ^G1092 and ^G2532 shall give ^G1325 the vineyard ^G290 to others. ^G243 And ^G1161 when they heard ^G191 it, they said, ^G2036 God forbid. ^{G3361 G1096}

¹⁷ And ^G1161 he beheld ^G1689 them, ^G846 and said, ^G2036 What ^G5101 is ^G2076 this ^G5124 then ^G3767 that is written, ^G1125 The stone ^G3037 which ^G3739 the builders ^G3618 rejected, ^G593 the same ^G3778 is become ^G1096 the head ^G2776 of ^G1519 the corner? ^G1137

¹⁸ Whosoever ^G3956 shall fall ^G4098 upon ^G1909 that ^G1565 stone ^G3037 shall be broken; ^G4917 but ^G1161 on ^G1909 whomsoever ^{G3739 G302} it shall fall, ^G4098 it will grind ^G3039 him ^G846 to powder. ^G3039

¹⁹ And ^G2532 the chief priests ^G749 and ^G2532 the scribes ^G1122 the same ^{G1722 G846} hour ^G5610 sought ^G2212 to lay ^G1911 hands ^G5495 on ^G1909 him; ^G846 and ^G2532 they feared ^G5399 the people: ^G2992 for ^G1063 they perceived ^G1097 that ^G3754 he had spoken ^G2036 this ^G5026 parable ^G3850 against ^G4314 them. ^G846

²⁰ And ^G2532 they watched ^G3906 him, and sent forth ^G649 spies, ^G1455 which should feign ^{G5271 G1511} themselves ^G1438 just men, ^G1342 that ^G2443 they might take hold ^G1949 of his ^G846 words, ^G3056 that so ^G1519 they might deliver ^G3860 him ^G846 unto the power ^G746 and ^G2532 authority ^G1849 of the governor. ^G2232

²¹ And ^G2532 they asked ^G1905 him, ^G846 saying, ^G3004 Master, ^G1320 we know ^G1492 that ^G3754 thou sayest ^G3004 and ^G2532 teachest ^G1321 rightly, ^{G3723 G2532} neither ^G3756 acceptest thou ^G2983 the person ^G4383 of any, but ^G235 teachest ^G1321 the way ^G3598 of God ^G2316 truly: ^{G225 G1909}

²² Is it lawful ^G1832 for us ^G2254 to give ^G1325 tribute ^G5411 unto Caesar, ^G2541 or ^G2228 no? ^G3756

²³ But ^G1161 he perceived ^G2657 their ^G846 craftiness, ^G3834 and said ^G2036 unto ^G4314 them, ^G846 Why ^G5101 tempt ye ^G3985 me? ^G3165

²⁴ Shew ^G1925 me ^G3427 a penny. ^G1220 Whose ^G5101 image ^G1504 and ^G2532 superscription ^G1923 hath it? ^G2192 They answered ^G611 and ^G1161 said, ^G2036 Caesar's. ^G2541

²⁵ And ^G1161 he said ^G2036 unto them, ^G846 Render ^G591 therefore ^G5106 unto Caesar ^G2541 the things which be ^G3588 Caesar's, ^G2541 and ^G2532 unto God ^G2316 the things which be ^G3588 God's. ^G2316

²⁶ And ^G2532 they could ^G2480 not ^G3756 take hold ^G1949 of his ^G846 words ^G4487 before ^G1726 the people: ^G2992 and ^G2532 they marvelled ^G2296 at ^G1909 his ^G846 answer, ^G612 and held their peace. ^G4601

²⁷ Then ^G1161 came ^G4334 to him certain ^G5100 of the Sadducees, ^G4523 which ^G3588 deny ^G483 that there is ^G1511 any ^G3361 resurrection; ^G386 and they asked ^G1905 him, ^G846

²⁸ Saying, ^G3004 Master, ^G1320 Moses ^G3475 wrote ^G1125 unto us, ^G2254 If ^G1437 any man's ^G5100 brother ^G80 die, ^G599 having ^G2192 a wife, ^G1135 and ^G2532 he ^G3778 die ^G599 without children, ^G815 that ^G2443 his ^G846 brother ^G80 should take ^G2983 his wife, ^G1135 and ^G2532 raise up ^G1817 seed ^G4690 unto his ^G846 brother. ^G80

²⁹ There were ^G2258 therefore ^G3767 seven ^G2033 brethren: ^G80 and ^G2532 the first ^G4413 took ^G2983 a wife, ^G1135 and died ^G599 without children. ^G815

³⁰ And ^G2532 the second ^G1208 took ^G2983 her to wife, ^G1135 and ^G2532 he ^G3778 died ^G599 childless. ^G815

³¹ And ^G2532 the third ^G5154 took ^G2983 her; ^G846 and ^G1161 in like manner ^G5615 the seven ^G2033 also: ^G2532 and they left ^G2641 no ^G3756 children, ^G5043 and ^G2532 died. ^G599

^{32 G1161} Last ^G5305 of all ^G3956 the woman ^G1135 died ^G599 also. ^G2532

³³ Therefore ^G3767 in ^G1722 the resurrection ^G386 whose ^G5101 wife ^G1135 of them ^G846 is she? ^G1096 for ^G1063 seven ^G2033 had ^G2192 her ^G846 to wife. ^G1135

³⁴ And ^G2532 Jesus ^G2424 answering ^G611 said ^G2036 unto them, ^G846 The children ^G5207 of this ^G5127 world ^G165 marry, ^G1060 and ^G2532 are given in marriage: ^G1548

³⁵ But ^G1161 they which shall be accounted worthy ^G2661 to obtain ^G5177 that ^G1565 world, ^G165 and ^G2532 the resurrection ^G386 from ^G1537 the dead, ^G3498 neither ^G3777 marry, ^G1060 nor ^G3777 are given in marriage: ^G1548

³⁶ Neither ^{G3777 G1063} can ^G1410 they die ^G599 any more: ^G2089 for ^G1063 they are ^G1526 equal unto the angels; ^G2465 and ^G2532 are ^G1526 the children ^G5207 of God, ^G2316 being ^G5607 the children ^G5207 of the resurrection. ^G386

³⁷ Now ^G1161 that ^G3754 the dead ^G3498 are raised, ^G1453 even ^G2532 Moses ^G3475 shewed ^G3377 at ^G1909 the bush, ^G942 when ^G5613 he calleth ^G3004 the Lord ^G2962 the God ^G2316 of Abraham, ^G11 and ^G2532 the God ^G2316 of Isaac, ^G2464 and ^G2532 the God ^G2316 of Jacob. ^G2384

³⁸ For ^G1161 he is ^G2076 not ^G3756 a God ^G2316 of the dead, ^G3498 but ^G235 of the living: ^G2198 for ^G1063 all ^G3956 live ^G2198 unto him. ^G846

³⁹ Then ^G1161 certain ^G5100 of the scribes ^G1122 answering ^G611 said, ^G2036 Master, ^G1320 thou hast well ^G2573 said. ^G2036

⁴⁰ And ^G1161 after that ^G3765 they durst ^G5111 not ^G3765 ask ^G1905 him ^G846 any ^G3762 question at all.

⁴¹ And ^G1161 he said ^G2036 unto ^G4314 them, ^G846 How ^G4459 say ^G3004 they that Christ ^G5547 is ^G1511 David's ^G1138 son? ^G5207

⁴² And ^G2532 David ^G1138 himself ^G846 saith ^G3004 in ^G1722 the book ^G976 of Psalms, ^G5568 The LORD ^G2962 said ^G2036 unto my ^G3450 Lord, ^G2962 Sit thou ^G2521 on ^G1537 my ^G3450 right hand, ^G1188

⁴³ Till ^{G2193 G302} I make ^G5087 thine ^G4675 enemies ^G2190 thy ^G4675 footstool. ^{G4228 G5286}

⁴⁴ David ^G1138 therefore ^G3767 calleth ^G2564 him ^G846 Lord, ^G2962 how ^G4459 is he ^G2076 then ^G2532 his ^G846 son? ^G5207

⁴⁵ Then ^G1161 in the audience ^G191 of all ^G3956 the people ^G2992 he said ^G2036 unto his ^G846 disciples, ^G3101

⁴⁶ Beware ^G4337 of ^G575 the scribes, ^G1122 which ^G3588 desire ^G2309 to walk ^G4043 in ^G1722 long robes, ^G4749 and ^G2532 love ^G5368 greetings ^G783 in ^G1722 the markets, ^G58 and ^G2532 the highest seats ^G4410 in ^G1722 the synagogues, ^G4864 and ^G2532 the chief rooms ^G4411 at ^G1722 feasts; ^G1173

⁴⁷ Which ^G3739 devour ^G2719 widows' ^G5503 houses, ^G3614 and ^G2532 for a shew ^G4392 make ^G4336 long ^G3117 prayers: ^G4336 the same ^G3778 shall receive ^G2983 greater ^G4055 damnation. ^G2917
