Luk20:1 And it was done in one of the days, when he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the princes of priests and [the] scribes came together with the elder men;
Luk20:2 and they said to him, [saying,] Say to us, in what power thou doest these things, or who is he that gave to thee this power?
Luk20:3 And Jesus answered, and said to them, And I shall ask you one word; answer ye to me. [Forsooth Jesus answering said to them, I shall ask you one word; answer ye to me.]
Luk20:4 Was the baptism of John of heaven, or of men?
Luk20:5 And they thought within themselves, saying, For if we [shall] say, Of heaven, he shall say, Why then believe ye not to him?
Luk20:6 and if we say, Of men, all the people shall stone us; for they be certain, that John is a prophet.
Luk20:7 And they answered, that they knew not, of whence it was.
Luk20:8 And Jesus said to them, Neither I say to you, in what power I do these things.
Luk20:9 And he began to say to the people this parable. A man planted a vineyard [Some man planted a vineyard], and hired it to tillers; and he was gone in pilgrimage long time.
Luk20:10 And in the time of gathering of grapes, he sent a servant to the tillers, that they should give to him of the fruit of the vineyard; which beat him, and let him go void.
Luk20:11 And he thought yet to send another servant; and [also] they beat this, and tormented him sore, and let him go void.
Luk20:12 And he thought yet to send the third, and him also they wounded, and casted [cast] him out.
Luk20:13 And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I shall send my dear-worthy son; peradventure, when they see him, they shall dread [they shall be ashamed].
Luk20:14 And when the tillers saw him, they thought within themselves, and said [saying], This is the heir, slay we him, that the heritage be [made] ours.
Luk20:15 And they casted [cast] him out of the vineyard, and killed him . What shall then the lord of the vineyard do to them [What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them]?
Luk20:16 He shall come, and destroy these tillers [and lose these tillers], and [he shall] give the vineyard to others. And when this thing was heard, they said to him, God forbid [Far be it].
Luk20:17 But he beheld them, and said, What then is this that is written, The stone which men building reproved, this is made into the head of the corner?
Luk20:18 Each that shall fall on that stone, shall be bruised, but on whom it shall fall, it shall break him all to pieces. [ a ]
Luk20:19 And the princes of priests, and [the] scribes, sought to lay on him hands in that hour [sought to lay hands on him in that hour], and they dreaded the people; for they knew that to them he said this likeness.
Luk20:20 And they espied, and sent spies, that feigned them[selves] just [which 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.
Luk20:21 And they asked him, and said, Master, we know, that rightly thou sayest and teachest [And they asked him, saying, Master, we know, that thou sayest and teachest rightly]; and thou takest not the person of man, but thou teachest in truth the way of God.
Luk20:22 Is it leaveful to us to give tribute to the emperor, or nay? [Is it leaveful to us for to give tribute to Caesar, or nay?]
Luk20:23 And he beheld the deceit of them, and said to them, What tempt ye me?
Luk20:24 Show ye to me a penny; whose image and superscription hath it? They answered, and said to him, The emperor's [They answering said to him, Caesar's].
Luk20:25 And he said to them, Yield ye therefore to the emperor those things that be the emperor's [Yield ye therefore to Caesar those things that be Caesar's], and those things that be of God, to God.
Luk20:26 And they might not reprove his word before the people; and they wondered in his answer, and held peace.
Luk20:27 Some of the Sadducees, that denied the again-rising from death to life [that deny resurrection for to be], came, and asked him,
Luk20:28 and said, Master, Moses wrote to us, if the brother of any man have a wife, and he be dead, and he was without heirs [saying, Master, Moses wrote to us, if the brother of any man having a wife died, and he was without free children], that his brother take his wife, and raise seed to his brother.
Luk20:29 And so there were seven brethren. The first took a wife, and is dead without heirs; [There were therefore seven brethren. The first took a wife, and is dead, without free children;]
Luk20:30 and the brother following took her [and the second took her], and he is dead without son;
Luk20:31 and the third took her; also and all seven, and they left not seed [and left no seed], but be dead;
Luk20:32 and the last of all the woman is dead. [the last of all and the woman is dead.]
Luk20:33 Therefore in the rising again, whose wife of them shall she be? for seven had her to wife.
Luk20:34 And Jesus said to them, Sons of this world wed, and be given to weddings;
Luk20:35 but they that shall be had worthy of that world, and of the rising again from death [forsooth they that shall be worthy to that world, and rising again from dead men], neither be wedded, nor wed wives,
Luk20:36 neither they shall be able to die more; for they be even with angels, and be the sons of God, since they be the sons of the rising again from death [since they be the sons of rising again].
Luk20:37 And that dead men rise again, also Moses showed beside the bush, as he saith, The Lord God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.
Luk20:38 And God is not of dead men [Forsooth God is not of dead men], but of living men; for all men live to him.

Luk20:41 But he said to them, How say men, Christ to be the son of David [How say men, that Christ is the son of David],
Luk20:42 and David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right half,
Luk20:43 till I put thine enemies a stool of thy feet?
Luk20:44 Therefore David calleth him Lord, and how is he his son?
Luk20:45 And in hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
Luk20:46 Be ye ware of the scribes, that will wander in stoles, and love salutations in the market [and love salutations in the markets], and the first chairs in the synagogues, and the first sitting places in [the] feasts;
Luk20:47 that devour the houses of widows, and feign long praying; these shall take the more damnation. [which devour the houses of widows, feigning long prayer; these shall take more damnation.]
