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?
18
Each that shall fall on that stone, shall be bruised, but on whom it shall fall, it shall break him all to pieces. [+Each that shall fall upon that stone, shall be scattered, or broken; forsooth on whom it shall fall, it shall break him into small parts.]
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.
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.
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.
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?]
23
And he beheld the deceit of them, and said to them, What tempt ye me?
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].
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.
26
And they might not reprove his word before the people; and they wondered in his answer, and held peace.
27
Some of the Sadducees, that denied the again-rising from death to life [that deny resurrection for to be], came, and asked him,
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.
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;]
30
and the brother following took her [and the second took her], and he is dead without son;
31
and the third took her; also and all seven, and they left not seed [and left no seed], but be dead;
32
and the last of all the woman is dead. [the last of all and the woman is dead.]
33
Therefore in the rising again, whose wife of them shall she be? for seven had her to wife.
34
And Jesus said to them, Sons of this world wed, and be given to weddings;
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,
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].
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.
