Luke 20:19-34

¹⁹And the princes of (the) priests, and (the) scribes, sought to lay on him hands in that hour, or And the princes of the priests, and the scribes, sought to lay hands on him in that hour, and they dreaded the people; for they knew that to them he said this likeness. (And the high priests, and the scribes, wanted to lay their hands on him at that time, but they feared the people; for they knew that he had said this parable about them.)

²⁰And they espied, and sent spies, that feigned themselves (to be) just, that they should take him in word, and betake him to the power of the prince, and to the power of the justice. (And they watched him, and sent spies, who pretended to be righteous, or honest men, so that they could catch him with his own words, and then deliver him unto the power and the authority of the Governor.)

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

²²Is it leaveful to us to give tribute to the emperor, or to Caesar, or nay? (Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?)

²³And he beheld the deceit of them, and said to them, What tempt ye me? (or Why do you test me?)

²⁴Show ye to me a penny; whose image and superscription hath it? They answered, and said to him, The emperor’s or Caesar’s.

²⁵And he said to them, Yield ye therefore to the emperor those things that be the emperor’s, or Yield ye therefore to Caesar those things that be Caesar’s, and those things that be of God, to God.

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

²⁷Some of the Sadducees, that denied the again-rising from death to life or the resurrection, came, and asked him.

²⁸and said, Master (or Teacher), Moses wrote to us, if the brother of any man have a wife, and he be dead or died, and he was without heirs or free children, that his brother take his wife, and raise (up) seed to his brother.

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 (pur)suing took her, (or and the brother following took her), or and the second took her, and he is dead without (any) son;

³¹and the third took her; also and all seven, and they left not seed or and left 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. (And so in the resurrection, whose wife of them shall she be? for all seven had her as their wife.)

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