Matthew 22:1-22

1AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 spake againG3825 inG1722 parablesG3850 unto themG846, sayingG3004,

2TheG3588 kingdomG932 ofG5207 heavenG3772 is likened unto a certain kingG935, whichG3748 madeG4160 a marriageG1062 feastG1062 forG444 hisG846 sonG5207,

3andG2532 sentG649 forthG649 hisG846 servantsG1401 toG1519 callG2564 themG846 thatG846 were bidden toG1519 theG3588 marriageG1062 feastG1062: andG2532 theyG846 wouldG846 notG3756 comeG2064.

4AgainG3825 heG2532 sentG649 forthG649 otherG243 servantsG1401, sayingG3004, TellG3004 themG3004 thatG3004 are bidden, BeholdG2400, IG1473 have madeG2090 readyG2092 myG3708 dinnerG712: myG3708 oxenG5022 andG2532 myG3708 fatlings are killedG2380, andG2532 allG3956 thingsG3956 are readyG2092: comeG1205 toG1519 theG3956 marriageG1062 feastG1062.

5ButG1161 theyG846 made light ofG1909 itG846, andG1161 wentG565 theirG846 ways, oneG3739 toG1519 hisG846 ownG2398 farmG68, another toG1519 hisG846 merchandise:

6andG2532 theG3588 restG3062 laidG2902 holdG2902 onG1161 hisG846 servantsG1401, andG2532 entreated themG846 shamefully, andG2532 killedG615 themG846.

7ButG1161 theG3588 kingG935 was wroth; andG2532 heG2532 sentG3992 hisG846 armiesG4753, andG2532 destroyedG622 thoseG3588 murderersG5406, andG2532 burned theirG846 cityG4172.

8ThenG5119 saith heG846 toG3004 hisG846 servantsG1401, TheG3588 weddingG1062 isG1510 readyG2092, butG1161 theyG846 thatG3004 wereG1510 bidden wereG1510 notG3756 worthyG514.

9GoG4198 ye thereforeG3767 unto theG3588 partings ofG1909 theG3588 highwaysG3598, andG2532 asG1519 manyG3745 asG1519 ye shallG2532 findG2147, bid toG1519 theG3588 marriageG1062 feastG1062.

10AndG2532 thoseG3588 servantsG1401 wentG1831 outG1831 intoG1519 theG3956 highwaysG3598, andG2532 gatheredG4863 togetherG4863 allG3956 asG1519 manyG3745 asG1519 theyG2532 foundG2147, bothG5037 badG4190 andG2532 goodG18: andG2532 theG3956 weddingG1062 was filledG4130 withG2532 guestsG345.

11ButG1161 whenG1161 theG3588 kingG935 cameG1525 inG1525 toG444 beholdG3708 theG3588 guestsG345, heG1161 sawG3708 thereG1563 a manG444 whichG3588 had notG3756 onG1161 a wedding-garment:

12andG2532 heG2532 saith unto himG846, FriendG2083, howG4459 camest thou inG2532 hither notG3361 havingG2192 a wedding-garment? AndG2532 heG2532 was speechlessG5392.

13ThenG2532 theG3588 kingG935 saidG3004 toG1519 theG3588 servantsG1249, BindG1210 himG846 handG5495 andG2532 footG4228, andG2532 castG1544 himG846 outG1544 intoG1519 theG3588 outerG1857 darknessG4655; thereG1563 shallG2532 beG1510 theG3588 weepingG2805 andG2532 gnashingG1030 ofG935 teethG3599.

14ForG1063 manyG4183 areG1510 calledG2822, butG1161 fewG3641 chosenG1588.

15ThenG5119 wentG4198 theG3588 PhariseesG5330, andG4198 tookG2983 counsel howG3704 theyG846 might ensnare himG846 inG1722 hisG846 talkG3056.

16AndG2532 theyG846 sendG649 toG1519 himG846 theirG846 disciplesG3101, withG3326 theG3588 HerodiansG2265, sayingG3004, Master, weG2532 knowG1492 thatG3754 thou art trueG227, andG2532 teachest theG3588 wayG3598 ofG2316 GodG2316 inG1722 truthG225, andG2532 carest notG3756 forG1063 anyG3762 oneG3762: forG1063 thou regardest notG3756 theG3588 personG444 ofG2316 menG444.

17TellG3004 usG1325 thereforeG3767, WhatG5101 thinkest thou? Is itG3004 lawfulG1832 toG3004 giveG1325 tribute unto CaesarG2541, orG2228 notG3756?

18ButG1161 JesusG2424 perceivedG1097 theirG846 wickednessG4189, andG1161 saidG3004, WhyG5101 temptG3985 ye meG3004, ye hypocritesG5273?

19Shew meG1473 theG3588 tribute moneyG846. AndG1161 theyG846 broughtG4374 unto himG846 a penny.

20AndG2532 heG2532 saith unto themG846, WhoseG5101 is thisG3778 imageG1504 andG2532 superscription?

21TheyG846 sayG3004 unto himG846, Caesar’sG2541. ThenG2532 saith heG2532 unto themG846, RenderG591 thereforeG3767 unto CaesarG2541 theG3588 thingsG846 thatG3004 are Caesar’sG2541; andG2532 unto GodG2316 theG3588 thingsG846 thatG3004 are God’sG2316.

22AndG2532 whenG2532 theyG846 heardG191 itG846, theyG846 marveledG2296, andG2532 leftG863 himG846, andG2532 wentG565 theirG846 wayG846.
