1 Jesus tornou a falar-lhes por meio de parábolas:

2 The kingdom of the heavens has become like a king who made a wedding feast for his son,

3 and sent his bondmen to call the persons invited to the wedding feast, and they would not come.

4 Again he sent other bondmen, saying, Say to the persons invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fatted beasts are killed, and all things ready; come to the wedding feast.

5 But they made light of it, and went, one to his own land, and another to his commerce.

6 And the rest, laying hold of his bondmen, ill-treated and slew {them}.

7 And {when} the king {heard of it he} was wroth, and having sent his forces, destroyed those murderers and burned their city.

8 Then he says to his bondmen, The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy;

9 go therefore into the thoroughfares of the highways, and as many as ye shall find invite to the wedding feast.

10 And those bondmen went out into the highways, and brought together all as many as they found, both evil and good; and the wedding feast was furnished with guests.

11 And the king, having gone in to see the guests, beheld there a man not clothed with a wedding garment.

12 And he says to him, {My} friend, how camest thou in here not having on a wedding garment? But he was speechless.

13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him feet and hands, and take him away, and cast him out into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

14 For many are called ones, but few chosen ones.

16 And they send out to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that thou art true and teachest the way of God in truth, and carest not for any one, for thou regardest not men's person;

17 tell us therefore what thou thinkest: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

18 But Jesus, knowing their wickedness, said, Why tempt ye me, hypocrites?

19 Shew me the money of the tribute. And they presented to him a denarius.

20 And he says to them, Whose {is} this image and superscription?

21 They say to him, Caesar's. Then he says to them, Pay then what is Caesar's to Caesar, and what is God's to God.

22 And when they heard {him}, they wondered, and left him, and went away.

24 saying, Teacher, Moses said, If any one die, not having children, his brother shall marry his wife and shall raise up seed to his brother.

25 Now there were with us seven brethren; and the first having married died, and not having seed, left his wife to his brother.

26 In like manner also the second and the third, unto the seven.

27 And last of all the woman also died.

28 In the resurrection therefore of which of the seven shall she be wife, for all had her?

29 And Jesus answering said to them, Ye err, not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God.

30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as angels of God in heaven.

31 Quanto à ressurreição dos mortos, não lestes o que Deus vos disse:

32 Eu sou o Deus de Abraão, o Deus de Isaac e o Deus de Jacó {Ex 3,6}? Ora, ele não é Deus dos mortos, mas Deus dos vivos.

33 E, ouvindo esta doutrina, as turbas se enchiam de grande admiração.

34 Sabendo os fariseus que Jesus reduzira ao silêncio os saduceus, reuniram-se

35 e um deles, doutor da lei, fez-lhe esta pergunta para pô-lo à prova:

36 Mestre, qual é o maior mandamento da lei?

37 Respondeu Jesus: Amarás o Senhor teu Deus de todo teu coração, de toda tua alma e de todo teu espírito {Dt 6,5}.

38 Este é o maior e o primeiro mandamento.

39 E o segundo, semelhante a este, é: Amarás teu próximo como a ti mesmo {Lv 19,18}.

40 Nesses dois mandamentos se resumem toda a lei e os profetas.

41 Como os fariseus se agrupassem, Jesus interrogou-os:

42 Que pensais vós de Cristo? De quem é filho? Responderam: De Davi!

43 Como então, prosseguiu Jesus, Davi, falando sob inspiração do Espírito, chama-o Senhor, dizendo:

44 O Senhor disse a meu Senhor: Senta-te à minha direita, até que eu ponha teus inimigos por escabelo dos teus pés {Sl 109,1}?

45 Se, pois, Davi o chama Senhor, como é ele seu filho?

46 Ninguém pôde responder-lhe nada. E, depois daquele dia, ninguém mais ousou interrogá-lo.

1 A ka oho ake a Ihu, ka korero kupu whakarite ano ki a ratou, ka mea,

2 Ka rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki tetahi kingi, i whakatakoto marena mo tana tama,

3 A tonoa ana ana pononga, hei karanga i te hunga i korerotia ki te marena: heoi kihai ratou i pai ki te haere.

4 Ka tono ano ia i era atu pononga, ka mea, Mea atu ki te hunga i korerotia, Na kua rite taku hakari; kua oti aku puru, aku mea momona te patu, a kua rite katoa nga mea: haere mai ki te marena.

5 Otira i paopaongia e ratou, haere ana ko tetahi ki tana mara, ko tetahi ki tana hokohoko.

6 Na hopukina ana ana pononga e nga mea i mahue, tukinotia ana ratou, a whakamatea iho.

7 Otiia i riri te kingi: a tonoa atu ana ana taua, whakangaromia ana taua hunga kohuru, tahuna iho to ratou pa.

8 Katahi ia ka mea ki ana pononga, E rite ana te marena, ko te hunga ia i karangatia kihai i pai.

9 Na haere koutou ki nga pekanga o nga ara, a tonoa mai ki te marena te hunga katoa e kite ai koutou.

10 Na ka haere aua pononga ki nga ara, a huihuia katoatia ana te hunga i kitea e ratou, ana pai, ana kino: na kiki ana te marena i nga manuhiri.

11 Otiia, no te tapokoranga, o te kingi kia kite i nga manuhiri, ka kitea e ia i reira he tangata kahore nei ona kakahu marena:

12 A ka mea ki a ia, E hoa, he aha koe i tomo mai ai ki konei kahore nei ou kahu marena? Heoi kihai ia i kuihi.

13 Na ka mea te kingi ki nga kaimahi, Herea ona ringa, ona waewae, kawea atu, maka ki te pouri i waho rawa; ko te wahi tera o te tangi, o te tetea o nga niho.

14 He tokomaha hoki e karangatia, he ruarua ia e whiriwhiria.

15 Me i reira ka haere nga Parihi, ka runanga ki te pehea e mau ai tetahi kupu ana.

16 A ka tonoa ki a ia a ratou akonga me nga tangata piri ki a Herora, hei mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e matau ana matou he pono koe, e whakaako ana koe i te ara a te Atua i runga i te pono, e kore ano ta te tangata e whakaaroa e koe: e kore nei hoki koe e titiro ki te kanohi tangata.

17 Tena, korerotia ki a matou, E pehea ana tou whakaaro? He mea tika ranei te hoatu takoha ki a Hiha, kahore ranei?

18 Otiia i mohio a Ihu ki to ratou whakaaro kino, a ka mea, He aha ta koutou e whakamatautau na i ahau, e te hunga tinihanga?

19 Tena koa, kia kite ahau i te moni takoha. A mauria mai ana e ratou ki a ia he pene.

20 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, No wai tenei ahua me te tuhituhinga?

21 Ka mea ratou ki a ia, No Hiha. Katahi ia ka mea ki a ratou, Hoatu ki a Hiha nga mea a Hiha; ki te Atua ano nga mea a te Atua.

22 Ka rongo ratou, ka miharo: a mahue ake ia i a ratou, a haere ana ratou.

23 I taua ra ka haere mai ki a ia nga Haruki, e mea nei kahore he aranga, ka ui ki a ia,

24 Ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, i mea a Mohi, Ki te mate te tangata, a kahore ana tamariki, ma tona teina e marena tana wahine, e whakatupu ake he uri mo tona tuakana.

25 Na tokowhitu tetahi whanau i a matou, he tuakana, he teina: te marenatanga o te tuatahi, ka mate, a hore ona uri, waiho iho tana wahine ma tona teina.

26 Me te tuarua ano, me te tuatoru, puta noa i te tuawhitu.

27 A, muri iho i a ratou katoa, ka mate te wahine.

28 Na, i te aranga, ma wai o te tokowhitu te wahine? i a ratou katoa nei hoki ia.

29 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, E he ana koutou, te mohio ki nga karaipiture, ki te kaha ano o te Atua.

30 I te aranga hoki e kore ratou e marena, e kore ano e hoatu kia marenatia, engari ka rite ki nga anahera a te Atua i te rangi.

31 Na, ko te aranga o te hunga mate, kahore ano koutou i kite i ta te Atua i korero ai ki a koutou, i mea ai,

32 Ko ahau te Atua o Aperahama, te Atua o Ihaka, te Atua o Hakopa? ehara te Atua i te Atua no te hunga mate, engari no te hunga ora.

33 A, no ka rongo te mano, ka miharo ki tana ako.

34 No te rongonga ia o nga Parihi, kua kapi i a ia te mangai o nga Haruki, ka whakamine tahi ratou.

35 Na ka ui tetahi o ratou, he kaiako i te ture, ka whakamatautau i a ia, ka mea,

36 E te Kaiwhakaako, ko tehea te kupu nui o te ture?

37 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Kia whakapaua tou ngakau, tou wairua, tou hinengaro, ki te aroha ki te Ariki, ki tou Atua.

38 Ko te tuatahi tenei, ko te kupu nui.

39 He rite ano te tuarua ki tenei, Kia aroha koe ki tou hoa tata, ano ko koe.

40 Kei runga i enei kupu e rua e iri ana te ture me nga poropiti.

41 A, i nga Parihi e noho huihui ana, ka ui a Ihu ki a ratou,

42 Ka mea, He pehea o koutou whakaaro ki a te Karaiti? Na wai ia tama? Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Na Rawiri.

43 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, He aha ra a Rawiri, i a ia e nohoia ana e te Wairua, i karanga ai i a ia he Ariki? i mea hoki ia,

44 I mea te Ariki ki toku Ariki, hei toku matau koe noho ai, kia meinga ra ano e ahau ou hoariri hei turanga waewae mou.

45 Na, ka kiia nei ia e Rawiri he Ariki, he pehea i tama ai ki a ia?

46 A hore he tangata i ahei te whakahoki kupu ki a ia, kihai rawa ano tetahi i maia ki te ui ki a ia i taua ra iho ano.
