Matthew 22
New King James Version
The Parable of the Wedding Feast(A)
22 And Jesus answered (B)and spoke to them again by parables and said: 2 “The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who arranged a marriage for his son, 3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come. 4 Again, he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “See, I have prepared my dinner; (C)my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding.” ’ 5 But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business. 6 And the rest seized his servants, treated them [a]spitefully, and killed them. 7 But when the king heard about it, he was furious. And he sent out (D)his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not (E)worthy. 9 Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding.’ 10 So those servants went out into the highways and (F)gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests.
11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there (G)who did not have on a wedding garment. 12 So he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was (H)speechless. 13 Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, [b]take him away, and cast him (I)into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
14 (J)“For many are called, but few are chosen.”
The Pharisees: Is It Lawful to Pay Taxes to Caesar?(K)
15 (L)Then the Pharisees went and plotted how they might entangle Him in His talk. 16 And they sent to Him their disciples with the (M)Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God in truth; nor do You care about anyone, for You do not [c]regard the person of men. 17 Tell us, therefore, what do You think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
18 But Jesus [d]perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test Me, you hypocrites? 19 Show Me the tax money.”
So they brought Him a denarius.
20 And He said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?”
21 They said to Him, “Caesar’s.”
And He said to them, (N)“Render[e] therefore to Caesar the things that are (O)Caesar’s, and to God the things that are (P)God’s.” 22 When they had heard these words, they marveled, and left Him and went their way.
The Sadducees: What About the Resurrection?(Q)
23 (R)The same day the Sadducees, (S)who say there is no resurrection, came to Him and asked Him, 24 saying: “Teacher, (T)Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother. 25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first died after he had married, and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother. 26 Likewise the second also, and the third, even to the seventh. 27 Last of all the woman died also. 28 Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her.”
29 Jesus answered and said to them, “You are [f]mistaken, (U)not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but (V)are like angels [g]of God in heaven. 31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32 (W)‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” 33 And when the multitudes heard this, (X)they were astonished at His teaching.
The Scribes: Which Is the First Commandment of All?(Y)
34 (Z)But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 Then one of them, (AA)a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying, 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”
37 Jesus said to him, (AB)“‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: (AC)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 (AD)On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
Jesus: How Can David Call His Descendant Lord?(AE)
41 (AF)While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42 saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He?”
They said to Him, “The (AG)Son of David.”
43 He said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call Him ‘Lord,’ saying:
44 ‘The(AH) Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool” ’?
45 If David then calls Him ‘Lord,’ how is He his Son?” 46 (AI)And no one was able to answer Him a word, (AJ)nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore.

Parable of the Marriage Feast
22 Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying, 2 “(A)The kingdom of heaven [a]is like [b]a king who [c]held a (B)wedding feast for his son. 3 And he (C)sent his slaves to call those who had been invited to the wedding feast, and they were unwilling to come. 4 Again he (D)sent other slaves, saying, ‘Tell those who have been invited, “Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fattened cattle are all butchered and everything is ready. Come to the wedding feast!”’ 5 But they paid no attention and went their separate ways, one to his own [d]farm, another to his business, 6 and the rest seized his slaves and treated them abusively, and then killed them. 7 Now the king was angry, and he sent his armies and destroyed those murderers and set their city on fire. 8 Then he *said to his slaves, ‘The wedding feast is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy. 9 So go to (E)the main roads, and invite whomever you find there to the wedding feast.’ 10 Those slaves went out into the streets and gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good; and the wedding hall was filled with [e]dinner guests.
11 “But when the king came in to look over the [f]dinner guests, he saw (F)a man there who was not dressed in wedding clothes, 12 and he *said to him, ‘(G)Friend, how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ And the man was speechless. 13 Then the king said to the servants, ‘Tie his hands and feet, and throw him into (H)the outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth in that place.’ 14 For many are [g](I)called, but few are (J)chosen.”
Poll-tax to Caesar
15 (K)Then the Pharisees went and [h]plotted together how they might trap Him [i]in what He said. 16 And they *sent their disciples to Him, along with the (L)Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are truthful and teach the way of God in truth, and [j]do not care what anyone thinks; for You [k]are not partial to anyone. 17 Tell us then, what do You think? Is it [l]permissible to pay a [m](M)poll-tax to (N)Caesar, or not?” 18 But Jesus perceived their [n]malice, and said, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites? 19 Show Me the (O)coin used for the poll-tax.” And they brought Him a [o]denarius. 20 And He *said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” 21 They *said to Him, “Caesar’s.” Then He *said to them, “(P)Then pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s.” 22 And hearing this, they were amazed; and (Q)they left Him and went away.
Jesus Answers the Sadducees
23 (R)On that day some (S)Sadducees (who say (T)there is no resurrection) came to [p]Jesus and questioned Him, 24 saying, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘(U)If a man dies having no children, his brother as next of kin shall marry his wife, and raise up [q]children for his brother.’ 25 Now there were seven brothers among us; and the first married and died, and having no [r]children, he left his wife to his brother. 26 It was the same also with the second brother, and the third, down to the seventh. 27 Last of all, the woman died. 28 In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her in marriage.”
29 But Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, (V)since you do not [s]understand the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither (W)marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. 31 But regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God: 32 ‘(X)I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” 33 When the crowds heard this, (Y)they were astonished at His teaching.
34 (Z)But when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced (AA)the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 And one of them, [t](AB)a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him: 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And He said to him, “‘(AC)You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the great and [u]foremost commandment. 39 The second is like it, ‘(AD)You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 (AE)Upon these two commandments [v]hang the whole Law and the Prophets.”
41 (AF)Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question: 42 “What do you think about the [w]Christ? Whose son is He?” They *said to Him, “(AG)The son of David.” 43 He *said to them, “Then [x]how does David [y](AH)in the Spirit call Him ‘Lord,’ saying,
44 ‘(AI)The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,
Until I put Your enemies under Your feet”’?
45 Therefore, if David calls Him ‘Lord,’ [z]how is He his son?” 46 (AJ)No one was able to offer Him a word in answer, nor did anyone dare from that day on to ask Him any more questions.

Священное Писание (Восточный перевод), версия для Таджикистана
Притча о свадебном пире(A)
22 Исо продолжал учить народ в притчах, говоря:
2 – Царство Всевышнего можно сравнить со свадебным пиром, который один царь приготовил для своего сына. 3 Он разослал к приглашённым своих рабов, чтобы позвать их на свадьбу, но приглашённые не хотели прийти. 4 Тогда царь послал других рабов, наказав им: «Пойдите и скажите им, что мой пир уже готов, зарезаны быки и другой откормленный скот, всё угощение готово, пусть приходят на свадебный пир». 5 Приглашённые, однако, не обратили на это никакого внимания и разошлись. Один пошёл на своё поле, другой торговать, 6 а некоторые даже схватили посланных рабов, унизили и убили их. 7 Царь был разгневан. Он послал своё войско, уничтожил тех убийц и сжёг их город.
8 Потом он сказал своим рабам: «Свадебный пир готов, но те, кого я пригласил, не заслужили чести быть на нём. 9 Пойдите теперь на перекрёстки дорог и приглашайте на пир всех, кого вы встретите». 10 Рабы пошли по улицам и стали созывать всех, кого встречали, злых и добрых, и пиршественный зал наполнился гостями, которые возлежали за столами. 11 Когда же царь пришёл посмотреть на возлежащих, он заметил человека, на котором не было свадебной одежды. 12 «Друг, – спросил царь, – как это ты вошёл сюда без свадебной одежды?» Человеку нечего было сказать. 13 Тогда царь приказал слугам: «Свяжите его по рукам и ногам и выбросьте вон, во тьму, где будет плач и скрежет зубов». 14 Ведь приглашённых много, но избранных мало.
Вопрос об уплате налогов(B)
15 После этого блюстители Закона стали советоваться, как бы им поймать Исо на слове. 16 Они подослали к Нему своих учеников вместе со сторонниками правителя Ирода.
– Учитель, – спросили они, – мы знаем, что Ты Человек честный и истинно учишь пути Всевышнего. Ты беспристрастен и не стремишься никому угодить. 17 Скажи нам, как Ты считаешь, следует ли платить налог римскому императору или нет?
18 Исо, зная их коварные намерения, сказал:
– Лицемеры, вы хотите поймать Меня на слове? 19 Покажите Мне монету, которой платится дань.
Они принесли Ему серебряную монету[a]. 20 Исо спросил их:
– Кто на ней изображён и чьё на ней имя?
21 – Императора, – ответили они.
Тогда Исо сказал им:
– Так и отдавайте императору то, что принадлежит императору, а Всевышнему – то, что принадлежит Всевышнему.
22 Такой ответ их озадачил, и, оставив Исо, они ушли.
Вопрос о воскресении мёртвых(C)
23 В тот же день саддукеи, которые утверждают, что нет воскресения мёртвых, подошли к Исо. Они спросили Его:
24 – Учитель, Мусо сказал, что если кто-либо умрёт, не оставив детей, то его брат должен жениться на вдове и восстановить род своему брату.[b] 25 Так вот, у нас тут было семеро братьев. Первый женился и умер бездетным, и вдова стала женой его брата. 26 То же самое произошло и со вторым, и с третьим, и со всеми семью братьями. 27 После всех умерла и женщина. 28 Итак, после воскресения, которому из семи братьев она будет женой? Ведь все были её мужьями.
29 Исо ответил им:
– Вы заблуждаетесь, потому что не знаете ни Писания, ни силы Всевышнего. 30 Воскреснув, люди не будут ни жениться, ни выходить замуж, а будут как ангелы на небесах. 31 Что же касается воскресения мёртвых, то разве вы не читали, что сказал вам Всевышний: 32 «Я – Бог Иброхима, Бог Исхока и Бог Якуба»[c]? Он Бог не мёртвых, а живых.
33 Люди слушали и удивлялись Его учению.
Самое важное повеление(D)
34 Блюстители же Закона, услышав, как Исо заставил замолчать саддукеев, собрались вокруг Него. 35 Один из них, учитель Таврота, чтобы поймать Исо на слове, спросил:
36 – Учитель, какое повеление в Законе самое важное?
37 Исо ответил:
– «Люби Вечного, Бога твоего, всем сердцем, всей душой и всем разумом своим»[d]. 38 Это первое и самое важное повеление. 39 Второе, не менее важное повеление: «Люби ближнего твоего, как самого себя»[e]. 40 Всё учение Таврота и Книги Пророков основано на этих двух повелениях.
Масех – Повелитель Довуда(E)
41 Когда блюстители Закона собрались вместе, Исо спросил их:
42 – Что вы думаете о Масехе? Чей Он сын?
– Сын Довуда, – ответили Ему.
43 Исо говорит им:
– Почему же тогда Довуд, под водительством Духа, называет Масеха Повелителем? Ведь он говорит:
44 «Вечный сказал моему Повелителю:
сядь по правую руку от Меня,
пока Я не повергну всех врагов Твоих
к ногам Твоим»[f].
45 Итак, если Довуд называет Масеха Повелителем, то как же в таком случае Он может быть всего лишь его сыном?
46 В ответ никто не мог сказать ни слова, и с этого дня они больше не решались задавать Ему вопросы.

Haitian Creole Version
22 ¶ Antan Jezi t'ap pale ak moun yo, li pran rakonte yo yon lòt parabòl:
2 Nan Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la, se tankou yon wa ki t'ap fete nòs pitit gason li.
3 Li voye domestik li yo rele moun ki te envite nan nòs la. Men, yo yonn pa t' vle vini.
4 Lè sa a, wa a voye lòt domestik, li di yo: Ale di envite yo manje a pare koulye a. Mwen gen tan fè touye towo bèf mwen yo ak lòt bèt gra mwen yo. Tout bagay pare. vin nan nòs la.
5 Men, envite yo pa fè ka sa l' voye di yo a, y al okipe zafè yo. Yonn ladan yo ale nan jaden l', yon lòt ale nan trafik li.
6 Gen ladan yo ki pran domestik yo, yo maltrete yo, yo touye yo.
7 Wa a fè yon gwo kòlè, li voye sòlda l' yo touye ansasen yo. Apre sa, li fè mete dife nan lavil yo a.
8 Lè sa a, li di domestik li yo: Manje nòs la pare, men moun ki te envite yo pa t' merite sa.
9 Ale sou granchemen, envite tout moun nou jwenn pou yo vini nan nòs la.
10 Domestik yo ale nan tout granchemen, yo sanble tout moun yo jwenn, ni move ni bon. Konsa, kote yo t'ap fè nòs la te plen moun.
11 Wa a vin antre pou wè envite yo. Je l' al tonbe sou yon nonm ki pa t' abiye ak rad nòs la.
12 Wa a di li: Zanmi, kouman ou fè antre isit la san ou pa mete rad nòs la sou ou? Nonm lan pa di yon mo.
13 Wa a di domestik li yo: Mare de pye l' ak de men l', voye l' jete deyò nan fènwa a. Se la la gen pou l' kriye, pou l' manje dan li.
14 Paske, yo envite anpil moun, men se de twa ase y'a chwazi.
15 ¶ Lè sa a, farizyen yo ale, yo mete tèt yo ansanm pou wè ki jan yo ta ka pran pawòl nan bouch Jezi pou akize li.
16 Yo voye disip pa yo ansanm ak patizan Ewòd yo bò kot Jezi pou mande li: Mèt, nou konnen ou se moun ki kare. W'ap moutre chemen Bondye a jan l' ye a, ou pa pè pesonn. Paske, ou pa gade sou figi moun.
17 Enben, kisa ou di nan sa: Eske lalwa pèmèt nou peye Seza lajan kontribisyon an, wi ou non?
18 Men, Jezi te konnen move lide yo te gen dèyè tèt yo, li reponn: Poukisa n'ap chache pran m' nan pèlen konsa, bann ipokrit?
19 Moutre m' pyès lajan nou sèvi pou peye taks la. Yo moutre l' yon pyès lajan.
20 Jezi mande yo: Pòtre ki moun avèk non ki moun ki sou li?
21 Yo reponn li: Se pòtre Seza ak non Seza. Lè sa a li di yo: Bay Seza sa ki pou Seza, bay Bondye sa ki pou Bondye.
22 Lè yo tande sa, yo pa t' manke sezi. Yo kite l', y al fè wout yo.
23 ¶ Menm jou a, sadiseyen yo vin bò kot Jezi. (Se sadiseyen yo ki di moun mouri pa leve). Yo poze Jezi keksyon sa a:
24 Mèt, Moyiz te di si yon nonm mouri san kite pitit, frè l' gen pou marye ak madanm defen an pou l' ka fè pitit pou frè l' ki mouri a.
25 Se konsa, te gen sèt frè, moun isit ansanm ak nou. Premye a marye, li mouri san l' pa t' gen pitit. Li kite madanm li pou frè li.
26 Dezyèm lan pase menm jan an tou. Twazyèm lan tou. Konsa, konsa, jouk tout sèt frè yo fin pase.
27 Apre yo tout fin mouri, fanm lan mouri li menm tou.
28 Lè mò yo va gen pou leve, madanm kilès li pral ye la a? Paske, li te madanm yo tout.
29 Jezi reponn yo: Nou nan lerè wi. Nou pa konprann sa ki ekri nan Liv la, ni nou pa konnen pouvwa Bondye.
30 Lè mò yo va gen pou leve, fanm ak gason pa nan marye ankò. Tout moun pral viv tankou zanj Bondye nan syèl la.
31 Pou keksyon mò yo k'ap leve vivan ankò, èske nou pa li sa Bondye te di nou:
32 Mwen se Bondye Abraram, Bondye Izarak, Bondye Jakòb? Bondye pa Bondye moun mouri, li se Bondye moun vivan.
33 Tout moun ki t'ap koute l' yo te sezi tande sa l' t'ap di yo.
34 ¶ Lè farizyen yo tande jan Jezi te fèmen bouch sadiseyen yo, yo tout sanble. Yo te vle pran Jezi nan pèlen.
35 Yonn ladan yo ki te dirèktè lalwa mande li:
36 Mèt, ki kòmandman ki pi konsekan nan tout lalwa a?
37 Jezi reponn li: Se pou ou renmen Mèt la, Bondye, ou ak tout kè ou, ak tout nanm ou, ak tout lide ou.
38 Se kòmandman sa a ki pi gwo, ki pi konsekan.
39 Men dezyèm kòmandman an ki gen menm enpòtans ak premye a: se pou ou renmen frè parèy ou tankou ou renmen pwòp tèt pa ou.
40 De kòmandman sa yo, se yo ki fondasyon tou sa ki nan lalwa Moyiz la ak tou sa pwofèt yo te moutre.
41 ¶ Antan farizyen yo te sanble, Jezi poze yo keksyon sa a:
42 Dapre nou, kisa Kris la ye? Pitit kilès li ye? Yo reponn li: Li se pitit pitit David!
43 Jezi di yo: Bon, kouman David fè rele l' Seyè? Paske se Lespri Bondye a menm ki te fè l' di:
44 Bondye te di Seyè mwen an: Chita la sou bò dwat mwen, jouk tan mwen mete lènmi ou yo anba pye ou.
45 Si David rele Kris la Seyè, ki jan pou Kris la ka pitit pitit David?
46 Okenn moun pa t' kapab reponn li yon mo. Depi jou sa a pesonn pa t' gen odas poze l' keksyon ankò.
