³⁰ For in the resurrection they neither ^(A)marry nor ^(B)are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

³⁴ And Jesus said to them, ^(A)“The sons of this age ^(B)marry and ^(C)are given in marriage, ³⁵ but those who are ^(D)considered worthy to attain to ^(E)that age and to the resurrection from the dead ^(F)neither marry ^(G)nor are given in marriage, ³⁶ for ^(H)they cannot die anymore, because they are ^(I)equal to angels and ^(J)are ^(K)sons of God, being ^(L)sons^[a] of the resurrection.
