1 Et respondens Jesus, dixit iterum in parabolis eis, dicens : 2 Simile factum est regnum cælorum homini regi, qui fecit nuptias filio suo. ||||||||||||||||||marriage|| 1 And responding, Jesus said to them again in parables, saying: 2 The kingdom of heaven is like a man, a king, who made a marriage feast for his son. 3 Et misit servos suos vocare invitatos ad nuptias, et nolebant venire. |||||the invited||||they were unwilling| 3 And he sent his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding, and they did not want to come. 4 Iterum misit alios servos, dicens : Dicite invitatis : Ecce prandium meum paravi, tauri mei et altilia occisa sunt, et omnia parata : venite ad nuptias. ||||||to the invited||meal||I have prepared|my bulls|||poultry|have been killed||||prepared||| 4 Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell those who are invited: Behold, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and fattened cattle have been killed, and all things are ready: come to the wedding. 5 Illi autem neglexerunt : et abierunt, alius in villam suam, alius vero ad negotiationem suam : 6 reliqui vero tenuerunt servos ejus, et contumeliis affectos occiderunt. ||they neglected|||||house|||||business||the remaining||they held||||with insults|afflicted| 5 But they disregarded it, and went away, one to his farm, another to his business: 6 and the rest seized his servants, and treated them spitefully, and killed them. 7 Rex autem cum audisset, iratus est : et missis exercitibus suis, perdidit homicidas illos, et civitatem illorum succendit. |||had heard||||having sent|armies||he destroyed|the murderers|||||he burned 7 But when the king heard of it, he was angry: and sending forth his armies, he destroyed those murderers, and burned their city. 8 Tunc ait servis suis : Nuptiæ quidem paratæ sunt, sed qui invitati erant, non fuerunt digni : 9 ite ergo ad exitus viarum, et quoscumque inveneritis, vocate ad nuptias. ||||wedding||prepared||||invited||||worthy||||crossroads|of the roads||whomever||call|| 8 Then he said to his servants: The wedding indeed is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy: 9 go therefore to the exits of the ways, and as many as you find, call to the wedding. 10 Et egressi servi ejus in vias, congregaverunt omnes quos invenerunt, malos et bonos : et impletæ sunt nuptiæ discumbentium. |||||the streets|they gathered||||||||the wedding feasts|||of those reclining at table 10 And his servants went out into the ways and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was filled with guests. 11 Intravit autem rex ut videret discumbentes, et vidit ibi hominem non vestitum veste nuptiali. |||||reclining|||||||garment|wedding 11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man not clothed in a wedding garment. 12 Et ait illi : Amice, quomodo huc intrasti non habens vestem nuptialem ? ||||||you entered|||garment|wedding 12 And he said to him: Friend, how did you come in here not having a wedding garment? At ille obmutuit. ||was silent But he fell silent. 13 Tunc dicit rex ministris : Ligatis manibus et pedibus ejus, mittite eum in tenebras exteriores : ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium. |||to the ministers||||||cast him|||||||||| Then the king said to the servants: Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into outer darkness: there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 Multi enim sunt vocati, pauci vero electi. ||||||chosen For many are called, but few are chosen.

15 Tunc abeuntes pharisæi, consilium inierunt ut caperent eum in sermone. ||||they entered||they might catch|||speech 15 Then the Pharisees went away, and took counsel to catch him in his speech. 16 Et mittunt ei discipulos suos cum Herodianis, dicentes : Magister, scimus quia verax es, et viam Dei in veritate doces, et non est tibi cura de aliquo : non enim respicis personam hominum : 17 dic ergo nobis quid tibi videtur, licet censum dare Cæsari, an non ? ||||||the Herodians|||we know||truthful||||||truth|you teach|||||concern||anyone||||the person|||||||||||to Caesar|| 16 And they send their disciples to him with the Herodians, saying: Teacher, we know that you are truthful, and you teach the way of God in truth, and you do not care about anyone: for you do not regard the person of men: 17 tell us therefore what you think, is it lawful to pay the tax to Caesar, or not? 18 Cognita autem Jesus nequitia eorum, ait : Quid me tentatis, hypocritæ ? knowing||||||||tempting| 18 But Jesus, knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you test me, hypocrites? 19 ostendite mihi numisma census. show||| 19 Show me the coin for the tax. At illi obtulerunt ei denarium. ||||a denarius But they offered him a denarius. 20 Et ait illis Jesus : Cujus est imago hæc, et superscriptio ? ||||||image|||inscription 20 And Jesus said to them: Whose image is this, and the inscription? 21 Dicunt ei : Cæsaris. ||of Caesar 21 They said to him: Caesar's. Tunc ait illis : Reddite ergo quæ sunt Cæsaris, Cæsari : et quæ sunt Dei, Deo. |||give back|||||||||| 22 Et audientes mirati sunt, et relicto eo abierunt. |||||leaving|| 22 And those who heard him were amazed, and left him and went away.

23 In illo die accesserunt ad eum sadducæi, qui dicunt non esse resurrectionem : et interrogaverunt eum, 24 dicentes : Magister, Moyses dixit : Si quis mortuus fuerit non habens filium, ut ducat frater ejus uxorem illius, et suscitet semen fratri suo. |||||||||||resurrection||||||||||dead||||||he should marry||||||he will raise||| 23 On that day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and asked him, 24 saying: Teacher, Moses said: If a man dies having no son, his brother must marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother. 25 Erant autem apud nos septem fratres : et primus, uxore ducta, defunctus est : et non habens semen, reliquit uxorem suam fratri suo. |||||||||having taken a wife|died|||||||||| 25 Now there were with us seven brothers: the first married and died; and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother. 26 Similiter secundus, et tertius usque ad septimum. |||third|||seventh 26 Likewise the second and third, even to the seventh. 27 Novissime autem omnium et mulier defuncta est. ||of all|||| 28 In resurrectione ergo cujus erit de septem uxor ? |resurrection||||||wife 28 In the resurrection, therefore, of which of the seven will she be a wife? omnes enim habuerunt eam. ||had| For they all had her. 29 Respondens autem Jesus, ait illis : Erratis nescientes Scripturas, neque virtutem Dei. ||||||not knowing|the Scriptures||the power| 29 But Jesus answering said to them: You err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 In resurrectione enim neque nubent, neque nubentur : sed erunt sicut angeli Dei in cælo. ||||they marry||||||||| 31 De resurrectione autem mortuorum non legistis quod dictum est a Deo dicente vobis : 32 Ego sum Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Jacob ? |||of the dead||||||||saying||||||||||| 31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said by God, who said to you: 32 I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? Non est Deus mortuorum, sed viventium. |||||of the living He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33 Et audientes turbæ, mirabantur in doctrina ejus. 33 And when the crowds heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.

34 Pharisæi autem audientes quod silentium imposuisset sadducæis, convenerunt in unum : 35 et interrogavit eum unus ex eis legis doctor, tentans eum : 36 Magister, quod est mandatum magnum in lege ? ||||silence||Sadducees|they convened||||asked|||||of the law|doctor|testing||||||great|| 37 Ait illi Jesus : Diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua, et in tota mente tua. ||||||||with all|||||||||||mind| 37 Jesus said to him: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 Hoc est maximum, et primum mandatum. ||greatest||| 38 This is the greatest and first commandment. 39 Secundum autem simile est huic : Diliges proximum tuum, sicut teipsum. 39 And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 In his duobus mandatis universa lex pendet, et prophetæ. ||||||depends|| 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

41 Congregatis autem pharisæis, interrogavit eos Jesus, 42 dicens : Quid vobis videtur de Christo ? Having gathered|||||||||seems||Christ 41 But when the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42 saying: What do you think about the Christ? cujus filius est ? whose son is he? Dicunt ei : David. 43 Ait illis : Quomodo ergo David in spiritu vocat eum Dominum, dicens : 44 Dixit Dominus Domino meo : Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum ? |||||||calls||||||||||my right hand|my||||your||| 43 He said to them: How then does David in the spirit call him Lord, saying: 44 The Lord said to my Lord: Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet? 45 Si ergo David vocat eum Dominum, quomodo filius ejus est ? |||calls|||||| 45 If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son? 46 Et nemo poterat ei respondere verbum : neque ausus fuit quisquam ex illa die eum amplius interrogare. ||could|||||dared||||||||to question 46 And no one was able to answer him a word: nor did anyone dare from that day to ask him any more questions.
