Luke 20:19-34

¹⁹And the princes of priests, and the scribes, sought to lay on him hands or to lay hands on him in that hour, and they dreaded the people; for they knew that to them he said this likeness.

²⁰And they espied, and sent spies, that feigned themselves just, that they should take him in word, and betake him to the power of the prince, and to the power of the justice.

²¹And they asked him, and said, Master, we know, that rightly thou sayest and teachest or that thou sayest and teachest rightly; and thou takest not the person of man, but thou teachest in truth the way of God.

²⁶And they might not reprove his word before the people; and they wondered in his answer, and held peace.

²⁹And so there were seven brethren. The first took a wife, and is dead without heirs, or without sons, or free children;

³⁰and the brother pursuing took her or the second took her, and he is dead without son;

³¹and the third took her; also and all seven, and they left not seed or no seed, but be dead;

³²and the last of all the woman is dead.

³³Therefore in the rising again, whose wife of them shall she be? for seven had her to wife.

³⁴And Jesus said to them, Sons of this world wed, and be given to weddings;
