| 12:1 | And hee began to speake vnto them by parables. A certaine man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the wine fat, and built a towre, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a farre countrey. |
| 12:2 | And at the season, he sent to the husbandmen a seruant, that he might receiue from the husbandmen of the fruite of the vineyard. |
| 12:3 | And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away emptie. |
| 12:4 | And againe, hee sent vnto them another seruant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled. |
| 12:5 | And againe, he sent another, and him they killed: and many others, beating some, and killing some. |
| 12:6 | Hauing yet therefore one sonne his welbeloued, he sent him also last vnto them, saying, They will reuerence my sonne. |
| 12:7 | But those husbandmen said amongst themselues, This is the heire, come, let vs kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours. |
| 12:8 | And they tooke him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard. |
| 12:9 | What shall therefore the Lord of the vineyard doe? He will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will giue the vineyard vnto others. |
| 12:10 | And haue ye not read this Scripture? The stone which the builders reiected, is become the head of the corner: |
| 12:11 | This was the Lords doing, and it is maruellous in our eies. |
| 12:12 | And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people, for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way. |
| 12:13 | And they send vnto him certaine of the Pharises, and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words. |
| 12:14 | And when they were come, they say vnto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawfull to giue tribute to Cesar, or not? |
| 12:15 | Shall we giue, or shall we not giue? But he knowing their hypocrisie, said vnto them, Why tempt yee mee? Bring me a penny that I may see it. |
| 12:16 | And they brought it: and he saith vnto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said vnto him, Cesars. |
| 12:17 | And Iesus answering, said vnto them, Render to Cesar the things that are Cesars: and to God the things that are Gods. And they maruailed at him. |
| 12:18 | Then come vnto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection, and they asked him, saying, |
| 12:19 | Master, Moses wrote vnto vs, If a mans brother die, and leaue his wife behind him, and leaue no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise vp seed vnto his brother. |
| 12:20 | Now there were seuen brethren: and the first tooke a wife, and dying left no seede. |
| 12:21 | And the second tooke her, and died, neither left he any seed, and the third likewise. |
| 12:22 | And the seuen had her, and left no seede: last of all the woman died also. |
| 12:23 | In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seuen had her to wife. |
| 12:24 | And Iesus answering, said vnto them, Doe ye not therefore erre, because yee know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? |
| 12:25 | For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are giuen in marriage: but are as the Angels which are in heauen. |
| 12:26 | And as touching the dead, that they rise: haue ye not read in the booke of Moses, how in the bush God spake vnto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isahac, and the God of Iacob? |
| 12:27 | Hee is not the God of the dead, but the God of the liuing: yee therefore doe greatly erre. |
| 12:28 | And one of the Scribes came, and hauing heard them reasoning together, and perceiuing that he had answered them well, asked him which is the first commandement of all. |
| 12:29 | And Iesus answered him, The first of al the commandements is, Heare, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord: |
| 12:30 | And thou shalt loue the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy minde, and with all thy strength: This is the first commandement. |
| 12:31 | And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe: there is none other commandement greater then these. |
| 12:32 | And the Scribe said vnto him, Well master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God, and there is none other but he. |
| 12:33 | And to loue him with all the heart, and with all the vnderstanding, and with all the soule, and with all the strength, and to loue his neighbour as himselfe, is more then all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. |
| 12:34 | And when Iesus saw that he answered discreetly, hee saide vnto him, Thou art not far from the kingdome of God. And no man after that durst aske him any question. |
| 12:35 | And Iesus answered, and said, while hee taught in the Temple, How say the Scribes that Christ is the sonne of Dauid? |
| 12:36 | For Dauid himselfe said by the holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, til I make thine enemies thy footstoole. |
| 12:37 | Dauid therefore himselfe calleth him Lord, and whence is hee then his sonne? And the common people heard him gladly. |
| 12:38 | And he said vnto them in his doctrine, Beware of the Scribes, which loue to goe in long clothing, and loue salutations in the market places, |
| 12:39 | And the chiefe seates in the Synagogues, and the vppermost roomes at feasts: |
| 12:40 | Which deuoure widowes houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: These shall receiue greater damnation. |
| 12:41 | And Iesus sate ouer against the treasurie, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasurie: and many that were rich, cast in much. |
| 12:42 | And there came a certaine poore widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. |
| 12:43 | And he called vnto him his disciples, and saith vnto them, Uerily I say vnto you, that this poore widow hath cast more in, then all they which haue cast into the treasurie. |
| 12:44 | For all they did cast in of their aboundance: but she of her want, did cast in all that she had, euen all her liuing. |
| 12:1 | And he beganne to speake vnto them by parables: A certayne ma planted a vynyarde, and made a hedge aboute it, and dygged a wynne presse, and buylded a tower, and let it out vnto hussbande men, and wente in to a straunge countre. |
| 12:2 | And whan the tyme was come, he sent a seruaut to the hussbande men, that he might receaue of the hussbandmen, of the frute of the vynyarde. |
| 12:3 | But they toke him, and bet him, and sent him awaye emptye. |
| 12:4 | Agayne, he sent vnto them another seruaunt, whom they stoned, and brake his heade, and sent him awaye shamefully dealt withall. |
| 12:5 | Agayne he sent another, whom they slew, and many other: some they bett, and some they put to death. |
| 12:6 | Then had he yet one sonne onely, whom he loued, him he sent also vnto them at the last, and sayde: they wyl stonde in awe of my sonne. |
| 12:7 | But the same hussbandmen sayde amonge them selues: This is the heyre, Come, let vs kyll him, so shal the inheritaunce be ours. |
| 12:8 | And they toke him, and slewe him, and cast him out of the vynyarde. |
| 12:9 | What shal now the lorde of the vynyarde do? He shal come and destroye the hussbande men, and geue the vynyarde vnto other. |
| 12:10 | Haue ye not red this scripture: The same stone which the buylders refused, is become the headstone in the corner? |
| 12:11 | This was the LORDES doynge, and it is maruelous in oure eyes. |
| 12:12 | And they wente aboute to take him (but they feared the people) for they perceaued, that he had spoke this parable agaynst the. And they left him, and wente their waye. |
| 12:13 | And they sent vnto him certayne of the Pharises and Herodes officers to take him in his wordes. |
| 12:14 | And they came, and sayde vnto hi: Master, we knowe that thou art true and carest for no man. For thou regardest not the outwarde appearaunce of men, but teachest ye waye of God truly. Is it laufull to geue tribute vnto the Emperoure, or not? |
| 12:15 | Ought we to geue it, or ought we not to geue it? But he perceaued their ypocrisye, and sayde vnto them: Why tempte ye me? Brynge me a peny, that I maye se it. |
| 12:16 | And they brought it him. Then sayde he: Whose ymage and superscripcion is this? They sayde vnto him: The Emperours. |
| 12:17 | Then answered Iesus and sayde vnto the: Geue therfore vnto the Emperoure that which is the Emperours, and vnto God that which is Gods. And they marueled at him. |
| 12:18 | Then came vnto him the Saduces (which holde that there is no resurreccion) these axed him, and sayde: |
| 12:19 | Master, Moses wrote vnto vs. Yf eny mans brother dye, and leaue a wife, and leaue no children, his brother shal take his wife, and rayse vp sede vnto his brother. |
| 12:20 | Now were there seuen brethren: the first toke a wife, and dyed, and left no sede: |
| 12:21 | and the seconde toke her, and dyed, and left no sede also: the thirde in like maner. |
| 12:22 | And they all seuen toke her, and left no sede. At the last after them all, the wyfe dyed also. |
| 12:23 | Now in the resurreccion whan they shal ryse agayne, whose wife shal she be of them? For seuen had her to wife. |
| 12:24 | Then answered Iesus, and sayde vnto them: Do not ye erre? because ye knowe not the scryptures ner ye power of God? |
| 12:25 | Whan they shal ryse agayne from the deed, they shal nether mary ner be maried, but they are as the angels in heauen. |
| 12:26 | As touchinge the deed, that they shal ryse agayne, haue ye not red in the boke of Moses, how God spake vnto him in the bush, and sayde: I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, & the God of Iacob? |
| 12:27 | Yet is not God a God of the deed, but of the lyuynge. Therfore ye erre greatly. |
| 12:28 | And there came vnto him one of the scrybes, that had herkened vnto the how they disputed together, and sawe that he had answered them well, and axed him: Which is the chefest comaundement of all? |
| 12:29 | Iesus answered him: The chefest commaundemet of all commaundementes is this: Heare O Israel, the LORDE oure God is one God, |
| 12:30 | and thou shalt loue the LORDE thy God with all thy hert, with all thy soule, with all thy mynde, and with all thy strength. This is the chefest commaundement, |
| 12:31 | and the seconde is like vnto it: Thou shalt loue thy neghboure as thy self. There is none other greater commaundement then these. |
| 12:32 | And the scrybe sayde vnto him: Master, Verely thou hast sayde right: for there is but one God, & there is none other without him, |
| 12:33 | and to loue him with all the hert, with all the mynde, with all the soule, and with all the strength, and to loue a mans neghboure as himself, is more then brent sacrifices and all offerynges. |
| 12:34 | But wha Iesus sawe that he answered discretly, he sayde vnto him: Thou art not farre from the kyngdome of God. And after this durst no man axe him eny mo questions. |
| 12:35 | And Iesus answered, and sayde, whan he taught in the temple: How saye the scrybes, yt Christ is the sonne of Dauid? |
| 12:36 | But Dauid himself saieth thorow the holy goost: The LORDE sayde vnto my LORDE: Syt thou on my right honde, tyll I make thine enemies yi fotestole. |
| 12:37 | There Dauid calleth him his LORDE. How is he the his sonne? And many people herde him gladly. |
| 12:38 | And he taught the, and sayde vnto the: Bewarre of the scrybes, that loue to go in longe garmentes, and loue to be saluted in the market, |
| 12:39 | and syt gladly aboue in the synagoges and at the table: |
| 12:40 | they deuoure wyddowes houses, and vnder a coloure they make longe prayers. These shal receaue the more damnacion. |
| 12:41 | And Iesus sat ouer agaynst the Gods chest, and behelde how the people put money in to the Godschest. And many that were riche: put in moch. |
| 12:42 | And there came a poore wyddowe, and put in two mytes, which make a farthinge. |
| 12:43 | And he called vnto him his disciples, and sayde vnto them: Verely I saye vnto you: this poore wyddowe hath put more in ye Godschest, then all they that haue put in: |
| 12:44 | For they all haue put i of their superfluyte, but she of hir pouerte hath put in all that she had, euen hir whole lyuynge. |
| 12:1 | And Jhesus bigan to speke to hem in parablis. A man plauntide a vynyerd, and sette an hegge aboute it, and dalf a lake, and bildide a toure, and hiryde it to tilieris, and wente forth in pilgrimage. |
| 12:2 | And he sente to the erthe tilieris in tyme a seruaunt, to resseyue of the erthe tilieris of the fruyt of the vynyerd. |
| 12:3 | And thei token hym, and beeten, and leften hym voide. |
| 12:4 | And eftsoone he sente to hem anothir seruaunt, and thei woundiden hym in the heed, and turmentiden hym. |
| 12:5 | And eftsoone he sente another, and thei slowen hym, and othir mo, betynge summe, and sleynge othere. |
| 12:6 | But yit he hadde a moost derworth sone, and he sente hym last to hem, and seide, Perauenture thei schulen drede my sone. |
| 12:7 | But the erthetilieris seiden togidere, This is the eire; come ye, sle we hym, and the eritage schal be ourun. |
| 12:8 | And thei tokun hym, and killiden, and castiden out without the vynyerd. |
| 12:9 | Thanne what schal the lord of the vynyerd do? He schal come, and lese the tilieris, and yyue the vynyerd to othere. |
| 12:10 | Whether ye han not red this scripture, The stoon which the bilderis han disspisid, this is maad in to the heed of the corner? |
| 12:11 | This thing is doon of the Lord, and is wondirful in oure iyen. |
| 12:12 | And thei souyten to holde hym, and thei dredden the puple; for thei knewen that to hem he seide this parable; and thei leften hym, |
| 12:13 | and thei wenten awei. And thei senten to hym summe of the Farisees and Erodians, to take hym in word. |
| 12:14 | Whiche camen, and seien to hym, Maistir, we witen that thou art sothfast, and reckist not of ony man; for nethir thou biholdist in to the face of man, but thou techist the weie of God in treuthe. Is it leeueful that tribute be youun to the emperoure, or we schulen not yyue? |
| 12:15 | Which witynge her pryuei falsnesse, seide to hem, What tempten ye me? brynge ye to me a peny, that Y se. |
| 12:16 | And thei brouyten to hym. And he seide to hem, Whos is this ymage, and the writyng? Thei seien to him, The emperouris. |
| 12:17 | And Jhesus answeride and seide to hem, Thanne yelde ye to the emperour tho thingis that ben of the emperours; and to God tho thingis that ben of God. |
| 12:18 | And thei wondriden of hym. And Saduces, that seien that ther is no ressurreccioun, camen to hym, and axeden hym, |
| 12:19 | and seiden, Maister, Moyses wroot to vs, that if the brother of a man were deed, and lefte his wijf, and haue no sones, his brother take his wijf, and reise vp seed to his brother. |
| 12:20 | Thanne seuene britheren ther weren; and the firste took a wijf, and diede, and lefte no seed. |
| 12:21 | And the secounde took hir, and he diede, and nether this lefte seed. |
| 12:22 | And the thridde also. And in lijk manere the seuene token hir, and leften not seed. And the womman the laste of alle `is deed. |
| 12:23 | Thanne in the resurreccioun, whanne thei schulen rise ayen, whos wijf of these schal sche be? for seuene hadden hir to wijf. |
| 12:24 | And Jhesus answeride, and seide to hem, Whether ye erren not therfor, that ye knowe not scripturis, nethir the vertu of God? |
| 12:25 | For whanne thei schulen rise ayen fro deeth, nether thei schulen wedde, nethir schulen be weddid, but thei schulen be as aungels of God in heuenes. |
| 12:26 | And of deed men, that thei risen ayen, han ye not red in the book of Moises, on the buysch, hou God spak to hym, and seide, Y am God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob? |
| 12:27 | He is not God of deed men, but of lyuynge men; therfor ye erren myche. |
| 12:28 | And oon of the scribis, that hadde herde hem dispuytynge togidir, cam nyy, and saiy that Jhesus had wel answeride hem, and axide hym, which was the firste maundement of alle. |
| 12:29 | And Jhesus answeride to him, that the firste maundement of alle is, Here thou, Israel, thi Lord God is o God; |
| 12:30 | and thou schalt loue thi Lord God of al thin herte, and of al thi soule, and of al thi mynde, and of al thi myyt. |
| 12:31 | This is the firste maundement. And the secounde is lijk to this, Thou schalt loue thi neiybore as thi silf. Ther is noon other maundement gretter than these. |
| 12:32 | And the scribe seide to hym, Maister, in treuthe thou hast wel seid; for o God is, and ther is noon other, outakun hym; |
| 12:33 | that he be loued of al the herte, and of al the mynde, and of al the vndurstondynge, and of al the soule, and of al strengthe, and to loue the neiybore as hym silf, is gretter than alle brent offryngis and sacrifices. |
| 12:34 | And Jhesus seynge that he hadde answerid wiseli, seide to hym, Thou art not fer fro the kyngdom of God. |
| 12:35 | And thanne no man durste axe hym no more ony thing. And Jhesus answeride and seide, techynge in the temple, Hou seien scribis, that Crist is the sone of Dauid? |
| 12:36 | For Dauid hym silf seide in the Hooli Goost, the Lord seide to my lord, Sitte on my riythalf, til Y putte thin enemyes the stool of thi feet. |
| 12:37 | Thanne Dauid hym silf clepith him lord, hou thanne is he his sone? And myche puple gladli herde hym. |
| 12:38 | And he seide to hem in his techyng, Be ye war of scribis, that wolen wandre in stolis, |
| 12:39 | and be salutid in chepyng, and sitte in synagogis in the firste chaieris, and the firste sittyng placis in soperis; |
| 12:40 | whiche deuouren the housis of widewis vndur colour of long preier; thei schulen take the longer doom. |
| 12:41 | And Jhesus sittynge ayens the tresorie, bihelde hou the puple castide monei in to the tresorie; and many riche men castiden many thingis. |
| 12:42 | But whanne a pore widewe was comun, sche keste two mynutis, that is, a ferthing. |
| 12:43 | And he clepide togidere hise disciplis, and seide to hem, Treuli Y seie to you, that this pore widewe keste more thanne alle, that kesten in to the tresorie. |
| 12:44 | For alle kesten of that thing that thei hadden plente of; but this of her pouert keste alle thingis that sche hadde, al hir lyuelode. |
