Luke 20:22-47 ▼

22 Ys it laufull for vs to geve Cesar tribute or no?

23 He perceaved their craftynes and sayde vnto them: why tept ye me?

24 Shewe me a peny. Whose ymage and superscripcio hath it? They answered and sayde: Cesars.

25 And he sayde vnto them: Geve then vnto Cesar that which belongeth vnto Cesar: and to God that which pertayneth to God.

26 And they coulde not reprove his sayinge before the people. But they marvayled at his answer and helde their peace.

27 Then came to him certayne of the Saduces which denye that ther is eny resurreccio. And they axed him

28 sayinge: Master Moses wrote vnto vs if eny mannes brother dye havinge a wyfe and the same dye with out yssue: that then his brother shuld take his wyfe and reyse vp seede vnto his brother.

29 Ther were seven brethren and the fyrste toke a wyfe and dyed with out children.

30 And the seconde toke the wyfe and he dyed chyldlesse.

31 And the thyrde toke her and in lyke wyse the resydue of the seven and leeft no chyldren be hynde them and dyed.

32 Last of all the woma dyed also.

33 Now at the resurreccio whose wyfe of them shall she be? For seven had her to wyfe.

34 Iesus answered and sayde vnto them. The chyldre of this worlde mary wyves and are maryed

35 but they which shalbe made worthy to enioye that worlde and the resurreccion from deeth nether mary wyves nether are maryed

36 nor yet can dye eny moare. For they are equall vnto the angels: and are the sonnes of God in as moche as they are the chyldre of the resurreccion.

37 And that the deed shall ryse agayne even Moses signified besydes the busshe when he sayde: the Lorde God of Adraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Iacob.

38 For he is not the God of the deed but of them which live. For all live in him.

39 Then certayne of the Pharises answered and sayde: Master thou hast well sayde.

40 And after that durst they not axe him eny question at all.

41 Then sayde he vnto them: how saye they that Christ is Davids sonne?

42 And David him selfe sayth in the boke of the Psalmes: The Lorde sayde vnto my Lorde syt on my right honde

43 tyll I make thine enemys thy fothe stole.

44 Seinge David calleth him Lorde: How is he then his sonne.

45 Then in the audience of all the people he sayde vnto his disciples

46 beware of the Scribes which desyre to goo in longe clothinge: and love gretynges in the markets and the hyest seates in the synagoges and chefe roumes at feastes

47 which devoure widdowes houses and that vnder a coloure of longe prayinge: the same shall receave greater damnacion.
