Mark 12:35-37
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
35 As Jesus was teaching in the temple area he said,(A) “How do the scribes claim that the Messiah is the son of David? 36 David himself, inspired by the holy Spirit, said:
‘The Lord said to my lord,
“Sit at my right hand
until I place your enemies under your feet.”’(B)
37 David himself calls him ‘lord’; so how is he his son?” [The] great crowd heard this with delight.
