LKE 20:1
Luke 20:1
|
|
And it came to pass, that on one of those days,
as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests
and the scribes came upon him with the elders, |
|
|
|
LKE 20:2
Luke 20:2
|
|
And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what
authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:3
Luke 20:3
|
|
And he answered and said unto them, I will also
ask you one thing; and answer me: |
|
|
|
LKE 20:4
Luke 20:4
|
|
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or
of men? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:5
Luke 20:5
|
|
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If
we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:6
Luke 20:6
|
|
But and if we say, Of men; all the people will
stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:7
Luke 20:7
|
|
And they answered, that they could not tell
whence it was. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:8
Luke 20:8
|
|
And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you
by what authority I do these things. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:9
Luke 20:9
|
|
Then began he to speak to the people this parable;
A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into
a far country for a long time. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:10
Luke 20:10
|
|
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen,
that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat
him, and sent him away empty. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:11
Luke 20:11
|
|
And again he sent another servant: and they
beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:12
Luke 20:12
|
|
And again he sent a third: and they wounded
him also, and cast him out. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:13
Luke 20:13
|
|
Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall
I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they
see him. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:14
Luke 20:14
|
|
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned
among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance
may be ours. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:15
Luke 20:15
|
|
So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed
him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:16
Luke 20:16
|
|
He shall come and destroy these husbandmen,
and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God
forbid. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:17
Luke 20:17
|
|
And he beheld them, and said, What is this then
that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the
head of the corner? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:18
Luke 20:18
|
|
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be
broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:19
Luke 20:19
|
|
And the chief priests and the scribes the same
hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived
that he had spoken this parable against them. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:20
Luke 20:20
|
|
And they watched him, and sent forth spies,
which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words,
that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:21
Luke 20:21
|
|
And they asked him, saying, Master, we know
that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any,
but teachest the way of God truly: |
|
|
|
LKE 20:22
Luke 20:22
|
|
Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar,
or no? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:23
Luke 20:23
|
|
But he perceived their craftiness, and said
unto them, Why tempt ye me? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:24
Luke 20:24
|
|
Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription
hath it? They answered and said, Caesar's. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:25
Luke 20:25
|
|
And he said unto them, Render therefore unto
Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:26
Luke 20:26
|
|
And they could not take hold of his words before
the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:27
Luke 20:27
|
|
Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which
deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him, |
|
|
|
LKE 20:28
Luke 20:28
|
|
Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any
man's brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother
should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:29
Luke 20:29
|
|
There were therefore seven brethren: and the
first took a wife, and died without children. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:30
Luke 20:30
|
|
And the second took her to wife, and he died
childless. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:31
Luke 20:31
|
|
And the third took her; and in like manner the
seven also: and they left no children, and died. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:32
Luke 20:32
|
|
Last of all the woman died also. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:33
Luke 20:33
|
|
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of
them is she? for seven had her to wife. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:34
Luke 20:34
|
|
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children
of this world marry, and are given in marriage: |
|
|
|
LKE 20:35
Luke 20:35
|
|
But they which shall be accounted worthy to
obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are
given in marriage: |
|
|
|
LKE 20:36
Luke 20:36
|
|
Neither can they die any more: for they are
equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the
resurrection. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:37
Luke 20:37
|
|
Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed
at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:38
Luke 20:38
|
|
For he is not a God of the dead, but of the
living: for all live unto him. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:39
Luke 20:39
|
|
Then certain of the scribes answering said,
Master, thou hast well said. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:40
Luke 20:40
|
|
And after that they durst not ask him any question
at all. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:41
Luke 20:41
|
|
And he said unto them, How say they that Christ
is David's son? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:42
Luke 20:42
|
|
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms,
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, |
|
|
|
LKE 20:43
Luke 20:43
|
|
Till I make thine enemies thy footstool. |
|
|
|
LKE 20:44
Luke 20:44
|
|
David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he
then his son? |
|
|
|
LKE 20:45
Luke 20:45
|
|
Then in the audience of all the people he said
unto his disciples, |
|
|
|
LKE 20:46
Luke 20:46
|
|
Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk
in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the
synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; |
|
|
|
LKE 20:47
Luke 20:47
|
|
Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew
make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation. |
|
