King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
1Et respondens Jesus, dixit iterum in parabolis eis, dicens:
2The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
2Simile factum est regnum cælorum homini regi, qui fecit nuptias filio suo.
3And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
3Et misit servos suos vocare invitatos ad nuptias, et nolebant venire.
4Again, 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.
4Iterum misit alios servos, dicens: Dicite invitatis: Ecce prandium meum paravi, tauri mei et altilia occisa sunt, et omnia parata: venite ad nuptias.
5But they made light of it , and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
5Illi autem neglexerunt: et abierunt, alius in villam suam, alius vero ad negotiationem suam:
6And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them .
6reliqui vero tenuerunt servos ejus, et contumeliis affectos occiderunt.
7But when the king heard thereof , he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
7Rex autem cum audisset, iratus est: et missis exercitibus suis, perdidit homicidas illos, et civitatem illorum succendit.
8Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
8Tunc ait servis suis: Nuptiæ quidem paratæ sunt, sed qui invitati erant, non fuerunt digni:
9Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
9ite ergo ad exitus viarum, et quoscumque inveneritis, vocate ad nuptias.
10So 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.
10Et egressi servi ejus in vias, congregaverunt omnes quos invenerunt, malos et bonos: et impletæ sunt nuptiæ discumbentium.
11¶ And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
11Intravit autem rex ut videret discumbentes, et vidit ibi hominem non vestitum veste nuptiali.
12And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
12Et ait illi: Amice, quomodo huc intrasti non habens vestem nuptialem? At ille obmutuit.
13Then 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.
13Tunc dicit rex ministris: Ligatis manibus et pedibus ejus, mittite eum in tenebras exteriores: ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium.
14For many are called, but few are chosen.
14Multi enim sunt vocati, pauci vero electi.
15¶ Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
15Tunc abeuntes pharisæi, consilium inierunt ut caperent eum in sermone.
16And 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.
16Et mittunt ei discipulos suos cum Herodianis, dicentes: Magister, scimus quia verax es, et viam Dei in veritate doces, et non est tibi cura de aliquo: non enim respicis personam hominum:
17Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
17dic ergo nobis quid tibi videtur, licet censum dare Cæsari, an non?
18But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?
18Cognita autem Jesus nequitia eorum, ait: Quid me tentatis, hypocritæ?
19Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
19ostendite mihi numisma census. At illi obtulerunt ei denarium.
20And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
20Et ait illis Jesus: Cujus est imago hæc, et superscriptio?
21They say unto him, Cæsar’s. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Cæsar the things which are Cæsar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s.
21Dicunt ei: Cæsaris. Tunc ait illis: Reddite ergo quæ sunt Cæsaris, Cæsari: et quæ sunt Dei, Deo.
22When they had heard these words , they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.
22Et audientes mirati sunt, et relicto eo abierunt.
23¶ The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
23In illo die accesserunt ad eum sadducæi, qui dicunt non esse resurrectionem: et interrogaverunt eum,
24Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
24dicentes: Magister, Moyses dixit: Si quis mortuus fuerit non habens filium, ut ducat frater ejus uxorem illius, et suscitet semen fratri suo.
25Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
25Erant autem apud nos septem fratres: et primus, uxore ducta, defunctus est: et non habens semen, reliquit uxorem suam fratri suo.
26Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
26Similiter secundus, et tertius usque ad septimum.
27And last of all the woman died also.
27Novissime autem omnium et mulier defuncta est.
28Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
28In resurrectione ergo cujus erit de septem uxor? omnes enim habuerunt eam.
29Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
29Respondens autem Jesus, ait illis: Erratis nescientes Scripturas, neque virtutem Dei.
30For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
30In resurrectione enim neque nubent, neque nubentur: sed erunt sicut angeli Dei in cælo.
31But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,
31De resurrectione autem mortuorum non legistis quod dictum est a Deo dicente vobis:
32I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
32Ego sum Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Jacob? Non est Deus mortuorum, sed viventium.
33And when the multitude heard this , they were astonished at his doctrine.
33Et audientes turbæ, mirabantur in doctrina ejus.
34¶ But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
34Pharisæi autem audientes quod silentium imposuisset sadducæis, convenerunt in unum:
35Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question , tempting him, and saying,
35et interrogavit eum unus ex eis legis doctor, tentans eum:
36Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
36Magister, quod est mandatum magnum in lege?
37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
37Ait illi Jesus: Diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua, et in tota mente tua.
38This is the first and great commandment.
38Hoc est maximum, et primum mandatum.
39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
39Secundum autem simile est huic: Diliges proximum tuum, sicut teipsum.
40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
40In his duobus mandatis universa lex pendet, et prophetæ.
41¶ While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
41Congregatis autem pharisæis, interrogavit eos Jesus,
42Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David.
42dicens: Quid vobis videtur de Christo? cujus filius est? Dicunt ei: David.
43He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
43Ait illis: Quomodo ergo David in spiritu vocat eum Dominum, dicens:
44The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
44Dixit Dominus Domino meo: Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum?
45If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
45Si ergo David vocat eum Dominum, quomodo filius ejus est?
46And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
46Et nemo poterat ei respondere verbum: neque ausus fuit quisquam ex illa die eum amplius interrogare.
