Luke 20:41-44
New Living Translation
Whose Son Is the Messiah?
41 Then Jesus presented them with a question. “Why is it,” he asked, “that the Messiah is said to be the son of David? 42 For David himself wrote in the book of Psalms:
‘The Lord said to my Lord,
Sit in the place of honor at my right hand
43 until I humble your enemies,
making them a footstool under your feet.’[a]
44 Since David called the Messiah ‘Lord,’ how can the Messiah be his son?”

International Standard Version
A Question about David’s Son(A)
41 Then he asked them, “How can people[a] say that the Messiah[b] is David’s son? 42 Because David himself in the book of Psalms says,
‘The Lord[c] told my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
43 until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”’[d]
44 So David calls him ‘Lord.’ Then how can he be his son?”
