Matthew 22
Revised Literal Translation
1AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 and spakeG3004 unto themG846 againG3825 byG1722 parablesG3850, and saidG3004, 2The kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772 is like untoG3666 a certainG444 kingG935, whichG3748 madeG4160 a marriageG1062 forG3588G5207 hisG846 sonG3588G5207, 3AndG2532 sent forthG649 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401 to callG2564 them that were biddenG2564 toG1519 the weddingG3588G1062: andG2532 they wouldG2309 notG3756 comeG2064. 4AgainG3825, he sent forthG649 otherG243 servantsG1401, sayingG3004, TellG3004 them which are biddenG2564, BeholdG3708, I have preparedG2090 myG1473 dinnerG3588G712: myG1473 oxenG3588G5022 andG2532 my fatlingsG4619 are killedG2380, andG2532 all thingsG3956 are readyG2092: comeG1205 untoG1519 the marriageG3588G1062. 5ButG1161 they made light ofG3588G272 it, and went their waysG565, oneG3588G3303 toG1519 hisG3588G2398 farmG68, anotherG3588G1161 toG1519 hisG846 merchandiseG3588G1711: 6AndG1161 the remnantG3062 tookG2902 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401, and entreatedG5195 them spitefullyG5195, andG2532 slewG615 them. 7ButG1161 whenG191 the kingG3588G935 heardG191 thereof, he was wrothG3710: andG2532 he sent forthG3992 hisG846 armiesG3588G4753, and destroyedG622 thoseG1565 murderersG3588G5406, andG2532 burned upG1714 theirG846 cityG3588G4172. 8ThenG5119 saith heG3004 toG3588G1401 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401, The weddingG1062 isG1510 readyG2092, butG1161 they which were biddenG2564 wereG1510 notG3756 worthyG514. 9Go yeG4198 thereforeG3767 intoG1909 the highwaysG3588G3598, andG2532 as manyG3745 asG302 ye shall findG2147, bidG2564 toG1519 the marriageG3588G1062. 10SoG2532 thoseG1565 servantsG3588G1401 went outG1831 intoG1519 the highwaysG3588G3598, and gathered togetherG4863 allG3956 as many asG3745 they foundG2147, bothG5037 badG4190 andG2532 goodG18: andG2532 the weddingG3588G1062 was furnishedG4130 with guestsG345. 11
AndG1161 whenG1525 the kingG3588G935 came inG1525 to seeG2300 the guestsG345, he sawG3708 thereG1563 a manG444 which hadG1746 notG3756 onG1746 a weddingG1062 garmentG1742: 12AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto himG846, FriendG2083, howG4459 camest thou inG1525 hitherG5602 notG3361 havingG2192 aG1742 weddingG1062 garmentG1742? AndG1161 he was speechlessG5392. 13ThenG5119 saidG3004 the kingG3588G935 to the servantsG3588G1249, BindG1210 himG846 handG5495 andG2532 footG4228, and takeG142 himG846 awayG142, andG2532 castG1544 him intoG1519 outerG1857 darknessG3588G4655; thereG1563 shall beG1510 weepingG3588G2805 andG2532 gnashingG3588G1030 of teethG3588G3599. 14ForG1063 manyG4183 areG1510 calledG2822, butG1161 fewG3641 are chosenG1588.
15ThenG5119 wentG4198 the PhariseesG3588G5330, and tookG2983 counselG4824 howG3704 they might entangleG3802 himG846 inG1722 his talkG3056. 16AndG2532 they sent outG649 unto himG846 theirG846 disciplesG3588G3101 withG3326 the HerodiansG3588G2265, sayingG3004, MasterG1320, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou artG1510 trueG227, andG2532 teachestG1321 the wayG3588G3598 of GodG3588G2316 inG1722 truthG225, neitherG3756 carestG3199 thouG4771 forG4012 anyG3762 man: forG1063 thou regardestG991 notG3756 the personG4383 of menG444. 17TellG3004 usG1473 thereforeG3767, WhatG5101 thinkestG1380 thouG4771? Is it lawfulG1832 to giveG1325 tributeG2778 unto CaesarG2541, orG2228 notG3756? 18ButG1161 JesusG3588G2424 perceivedG1097 theirG846 wickednessG3588G4189, and saidG3004, WhyG5101 tempt yeG3985 meG1473, ye hypocritesG5273? 19ShewG1925 meG1473 the tributeG3588G2778 moneyG3588G3546. AndG1161 they broughtG4374 unto himG846 a pennyG1220. 20AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto themG846, WhoseG5101 is thisG3778 imageG3588G1504 andG2532 superscriptionG3588G1923? 21They sayG3004 unto himG846, Cæsar’sG2541. ThenG5119 saith heG3004 unto themG846, RenderG591 thereforeG3767 unto CæsarG2541 the things which are Cæsar’sG2541; andG2532 unto GodG3588G2316 the things that are God’sG3588G2316. 22WhenG2532 they had heardG191 these words, they marvelledG2296, andG2532 leftG863 himG846, and went their wayG565. 23
TheG3588G2250 sameG1565 dayG3588G2250 cameG4334 to himG846 the SadduceesG4523, which say thatG3004 there isG1510 noG3361 resurrectionG386, andG2532 askedG1905 himG846, 24SayingG3004, MasterG1320, MosesG3475 saidG3004, IfG1437 a manG5100 dieG599, havingG2192 noG3361 childrenG5043, hisG846 brotherG3588G80 shall marryG1918 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135, andG2532 raise upG450 seedG4690 untoG3588G80 hisG846 brotherG3588G80. 25NowG1161 there wereG1510 withG3844 usG1473 sevenG2033 brethrenG80: andG2532 the firstG4413, when he had married a wifeG1060, deceasedG5053, andG2532, havingG2192 noG3361 issueG4690, leftG863 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135 untoG3588G80 hisG846 brotherG3588G80: 26LikewiseG3668 the secondG1208 alsoG2532, andG2532 the thirdG5154, untoG2193 the seventhG2033. 27AndG1161 lastG5305 of allG3956 the womanG3588G1135 diedG599 alsoG2532. 28ThereforeG3767 inG1722 the resurrectionG386 whoseG5101 wifeG1135 shall she beG1510 of the sevenG2033? forG1063 theyG2192 allG3956 hadG2192 herG846. 29JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto themG846, Ye do errG4105, notG3361 knowingG1492 the scripturesG3588G1124, norG3366 the powerG3588G1411 of GodG3588G2316. 30ForG1063 inG1722 the resurrectionG3588G386 theyG1060 neitherG3777 marryG1060, norG3777 are given in marriageG1547, butG235 areG1510 asG5613 the angelsG32 of GodG3588G2316 inG1722 heavenG3772. 31ButG1161 as touchingG4012 the resurrectionG3588G386 of the deadG3498, have yeG314 notG3756 readG314 that which was spokenG2046 unto youG4771 byG5259 GodG3588G2316, sayingG3004, 32IG1473 amG1510 the GodG3588G2316 of AbrahamG11, andG2532 the GodG3588G2316 of IsaacG2464, andG2532 the GodG3588G2316 of JacobG2384? GodG3588G2316 isG1510 notG3756 the GodG2316 of the deadG3498, butG235 of the livingG2198. 33AndG2532 whenG191 the multitudeG3588G3793 heardG191 this, they were astonishedG1605 atG1909 hisG846 doctrineG3588G1322. 34
ButG1161 whenG191 the PhariseesG5330 had heardG191 thatG3754 he had putG5392 the SadduceesG3588G4523 to silenceG5392, they were gatheredG4863 togetherG1909. 35ThenG2532 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846, which was a lawyerG3544, askedG1905 him a question, temptingG3985 himG846, andG2532 sayingG3004, 36MasterG1320, whichG4169 is theG1785 greatG3173 commandmentG1785 inG1722 the lawG3588G3551? 37JesusG2424 saidG3004 unto himG846, Thou shalt loveG25 the LordG2962 thyG4771 GodG3588G2316 withG1722 allG3650 thyG4771 heartG3588G2588, andG2532 withG1722 allG3650 thyG4771 soulG3588G5590, andG2532 withG1722 allG3650 thyG4771 mindG3588G1271. 38ThisG3778 isG1510 the firstG4413 andG2532 greatG3173 commandmentG1785. 39AndG1161 the secondG1208 is likeG3664 unto itG846, Thou shalt loveG25 thyG4771 neighbourG4139 asG5613 thyselfG4572. 40OnG1722 theseG3778 twoG1417 commandmentsG1785 hangG2910 allG3650 the lawG3588G3551 andG2532 the prophetsG3588G4396.
41WhileG1161 the PhariseesG3588G5330 were gathered togetherG4863, JesusG3588G2424 askedG1905 themG846, 42SayingG3004, WhatG5101 thinkG1380 yeG4771 ofG4012 ChristG3588G5547? whoseG5101 sonG5207 is heG1510? They sayG3004 unto himG846, The Son of DavidG1138. 43He saithG3004 unto themG846, HowG4459 thenG3767 dothG2564 DavidG1138 inG1722 spiritG4151 callG2564 himG846 LordG2962, sayingG3004, 44The LordG3588G2962 saidG3004 untoG3588G2962 myG1473 LordG3588G2962, Sit thouG2521 onG1537 myG1473 right handG1188, tillG2193 I makeG5087 thineG4771 enemiesG2190 thyG4771 footstoolG5286? 45IfG1487 DavidG1138 thenG3767 callG2564 himG846 LordG2962, howG4459 is heG1510 hisG846 sonG5207? 46AndG2532 no manG3762 was ableG1410 to answerG611 himG846 a wordG3056, neitherG3761 durstG5111 anyG5100 man fromG575 thatG1565 dayG3588G2250 forthG575 askG1905 himG846 any moreG3765 questions.
