40:022:004 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying,
Tell them which
are
bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my
oxen and my
fatlings
are killed, and all things are ready: come unto
the
marriage.
40:022:005 But they made light of it, and went their
ways, one to his
farm,
another to his merchandise:
40:022:006 And the remnant took his servants, and
entreated them
spitefully,
and slew them.
40:022:007 But when the king heard thereof, he was
wroth: and he sent
forth
his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned
up
their
city.
40:022:008 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding
is ready, but they
which
were bidden were not worthy.
40:022:009 Go ye therefore into the highways, and
as many as ye shall
find,
bid to the marriage.
40:022:010 So those servants went out into the highways,
and gathered
together
all as many as they found, both bad and good:
and the
wedding
was furnished with guests.
40:022:011 And when the king came in to see the guests,
he saw there a
man
which had not on a wedding garment:
40:022:012 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest
thou in hither not
having
a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
40:022:013 Then said the king to the servants, Bind
him hand and foot,
and
take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there
shall
be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
40:022:014 For many are called, but few are chosen.
40:022:015 Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel
how they might
entangle
him in his talk.
40:022:016 And they sent out unto him their disciples
with the Herodians,
saying,
Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the
way
of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man:
for thou
regardest
not the person of men.
40:022:017 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou?
Is it lawful to give
tribute
unto Caesar, or not?
40:022:018 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and
said, Why tempt ye
me,
ye hypocrites?
40:022:019 Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
40:022:020 And he saith unto them, Whose is this image
and
superscription?
40:022:021 They say unto him, Caesar’s.
Then saith he unto them, Render
therefore
unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and
unto
God
the things that are God’s.
40:022:022 When they had heard these words, they marvelled,
and left him,
and
went their way.
40:022:023 The same day came to him the Sadducees,
which say that there
is
no resurrection, and asked him,
