| 20:1 | And it came to passe, that on one of those dayes, as he taught the people in the Temple, and preached the Gospel, the chiefe Priests and the Scribes came vpon him, with the Elders, |
| 20:2 | And spake vnto him, saying, Tell vs, by what authoritie doest thou these things? or who is hee that gaue thee this authoritie? |

| 20:4 | The Baptisme of Iohn, was it from heauen, or of men? |
| 20:5 | And they reasoned with themselues, saying, If wee shall say, From heauen, he will say, Why then beleeued yee him not? |
| 20:6 | But and if we say, Of men, all the people will stone vs: for they be perswaded that Iohn was a Prophet. |
| 20:7 | And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was. |
| 20:8 | And Iesus said vnto them, Neither tell I you by what authoritie I doe these things. |
| 20:9 | Then began hee to speake to the people this parable: A certaine man planted a vineyard, and let it foorth to husbandmen, and went into a farre countrey for a long time. |
| 20:10 | And at the season, hee sent a seruant to the husbandmen, that they should giue him of the fruit of the vineyard, but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away emptie. |

| 20:12 | And againe he sent the third, and they wounded him also, & cast him out. |
| 20:13 | Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I doe? I will send my beloued sonne: it may be they will reuerence him when they see him. |
| 20:14 | But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselues, saying, This is ye heire, come, let vs kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. |
| 20:15 | So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard doe vnto them? |
| 20:16 | Hee shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall giue the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid. |
| 20:17 | And hee beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders reiected, the same is become the head of the corner? |
| 20:18 | Whosoeuer shall fall vpon that stone, shalbe broken: but on whomsoeuer it shall fall, it will grinde him to powder. |
| 20:19 | And the chiefe Priests and the Scribes the same houre sought to lay hands on him, and they feared the people: for they perceiued that he had spoken this parable against them. |
| 20:20 | And they watched him, and sent foorth spies, which should faine themselues iust men, that they might take holde of his words, that so they might deliuer him vnto the power and authoritie of the gouernour. |

| 20:22 | Is it lawfull for vs to giue tribute vnto Cesar, or no? |
| 20:23 | But he perceiued their craftines, and said vnto them, Why tempt ye me? |
| 20:24 | Shew me a peny: whose image and superscription hath it? They answered, and said, Cesars. |
| 20:25 | And he said vnto them, Render therefore vnto Cesar the things which be Cesars, and vnto God the things which be Gods. |
| 20:26 | And they could not take holde of his wordes before the people, and they marueiled at his answere, and helde their peace. |

| 20:28 | Saying, Master, Moses wrote vnto vs, If any mans brother die, hauing a wife, and hee die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise vp seede vnto his brother. |
| 20:29 | There were therefore seuen brethren, and the first tooke a wife, and died without children. |
| 20:30 | And the second tooke her to wife, and he died childlesse. |
| 20:31 | And the third tooke her, and in like maner the seuen also. And they left no children, and died. |
| 20:32 | Last of all the woman died also. |
| 20:33 | Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife of them is she? for seuen had her to wife. |
| 20:34 | And Iesus answering, said vnto them, The children of this world, marrie, and are giuen in marriage: |
| 20:35 | But they which shall be accompted worthy to obtaine that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marrie, nor are giuen in marriage. |
| 20:36 | Neither can they die any more; for they are equall vnto the Angels, and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. |
| 20:37 | Now that the dead are raised, euen Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isahac, and the God of Iacob. |
| 20:38 | For he is not a God of the dead, but of the liuing for all liue vnto him. |
| 20:39 | Then certaine of the Scribes answering, said, Master, Thou hast well said. |
| 20:40 | And after that, they durst not aske him any question at all. |
| 20:41 | And he said vnto them, How say they that Christ is Dauids sonne? |
| 20:42 | And Dauid himselfe saith in the booke of Psalmes, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, |
| 20:43 | Till I make thine enemies thy footestoole. |
| 20:44 | Dauid therefore calleth him, Lord, how is he then his sonne? |
| 20:45 | Then in the audience of all the people, he said vnto his disciples, |
| 20:46 | Beware of the Scribes, which desire to walke in long robes, and loue greetings in the markets, and the highest seates in the Synagogues, and the chiefe roumes at feasts: |
| 20:47 | Which deuoure widowes houses and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receiue greater damnation. |
| 20:1 | And it fortuned one of those dayes, whan he taught the people in the teple, and preached the Gospell, the hye prestes and scrybes came to him with the Elders, |
| 20:2 | and spake vnto him, and sayde: Tell vs, by what auctorite doest thou these thinges? Or who gaue the this auctorite? |
| 20:3 | But he answered, & sayde vnto the: I wil axe you a worde also, tell it me: |
| 20:4 | The baptyme of Iho was it from heauen, or of men? |
| 20:5 | But they thought in them selues, and sayde: Yf we saye, from heauen, then shal he saye: Why dyd ye not the beleue him? |
| 20:6 | But yf we saye, of men, then shal all the people stone vs, for they be persuaded, that Ihon is a prophet. |
| 20:7 | And they answered, that they coulde not tell, whence it was. |
| 20:8 | And Iesus sayde vnto them: Nether tell I you, by what auctorite I do these thinges. |
| 20:9 | And he beganne to tell the people this symilitude: A certayne man planted a vynyarde, and let it out vnto hussbadmen, and wente himself in to a straunge countre for a greate season. |
| 20:10 | And whan his tyme was come, he sent a seruaut to the hussbadmen, that they might geue him of the frute of the vynyarde. But the hussbandmen bet him, and sent him awaye emptye. |
| 20:11 | And agayne he sent yet another seruaut: but they bet him also, and intreated him shamefully, & sent him awaye emptye. |
| 20:12 | And besydes this, he sent the thirde: but they wounded him also, and thrust him out. |
| 20:13 | Then sayde the lorde of the vynyarde: What shal I do? I wil sende my deare sonne, peraduenture they wil stonde in awe of him, whan they se him. |
| 20:14 | But whan the hussbande men sawe the sonne, they thought in the selues, and sayde: This is the heyre, come, let vs kyll him, yt the inheritaunce maye be oures. |
| 20:15 | And they thrust him out of ye vynyarde, and slew him. What shal now the lorde of the vynyarde do vnto them? |
| 20:16 | He shal come, and destroye those hussbandmen, and let out his vynyarde vnto other. Whan they herde that, they sayde: God forbyd. |
| 20:17 | But he behelde the, and sayde: What is this then that is wrytten: The same stone which the buylders refused, is become the head corner stone? |
| 20:18 | Who so euer falleth vpon this stone, shalbe broken in sunder: but vpo who so euer he falleth, he shall grynde him to poulder. |
| 20:19 | And the hye prestes and scrybes wente aboute to laye handes vpon him the same houre, and they feared the people: for they perceaued, that he had spoke this symilitude agaynst them. |
| 20:20 | And they watched hi, & sent forth spyes, which shulde fayne the selues perfecte, that they might take him in his wordes, to delyuer him vnto the power and auctorite of ye debite. |
| 20:21 | And they axed him, & sayde: Master, we knowe that thou sayest & teachest right, and regardest the outwarde appearauce of no man, but teachest the waye of God truly. |
| 20:22 | Is it laufull, that we geue tribute vnto the Emperoure, or not? |
| 20:23 | But he perceaued their craftynes, and sayde vnto them: Why tepte ye me? |
| 20:24 | Shewe me the peny. Whose ymage and superscripcion hath it? They answered, and sayde: The Emperours. |
| 20:25 | Then sayde he vnto them: Geue the vnto the Emperoure, that which is the Emperours: & vnto God, that which is Gods. |
| 20:26 | And they coude not reproue his worde before the people, and marueyled at his answere, and helde their peace. |
| 20:27 | Then came vnto him certayne of the Saduces (which holde that there is no resurreccion) and axed him, |
| 20:28 | and sayde: Master, Moses wrote vnto vs, yf eny mans brother dye hauynge a wife, and dyeth without childre, then shal his brother take his wife, and rayse vp sede vnto his brother. |
| 20:29 | Now were there seue brethre: the first toke a wife, and dyed childlesse: |
| 20:30 | and the seconde toke the wife, and deyed without children also: |
| 20:31 | and the thirde toke her, likewyse all the seue, and left no children behynde the, and dyed. |
| 20:32 | At the last after them all, the woman dyed also. |
| 20:33 | Now in the resurreccion, whose wife shal she be of them For seuen had her to wife. |
| 20:34 | And Iesus answered and saide vnto them: The childre of this worlde mary, & are maried, |
| 20:35 | but they yt shalbe worthy to enioye that worlde and the resurreccion from the deed, shal nether mary ner be maried, |
| 20:36 | for they can dye nomore. For they are like vnto the angels, and are the children of God, in so moch as they are children of the resurreccion. |
| 20:37 | But that the deed ryse agayne, hath Moses also signified besydes the bush, when he called the LORDE, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob. |
| 20:38 | But God is not a God of the deed but of the lyuynge, for they lyue all vnto him. |
| 20:39 | Then answered certayne of the scrybes, and sayde: Master, thou haist sayde well. |
| 20:40 | And from that tyme forth they durst axe him no mo questions. |
| 20:41 | But he sayde vnto them: How saye they that Christ is Dauids sonne? |
| 20:42 | And Dauid himself sayeth in the boke of the Psalmes: The LORDE sayde vnto my LORDE: Syt thou on my right honde, |
| 20:43 | tyll I make thine enemies thy fote stole. |
| 20:44 | Dauid calleth him LORDE, how is he then his sonne? |
| 20:45 | Now whyle all the people gaue audience, he sayde vnto his disciples: |
| 20:46 | Bewarre of the scrybes, which wyl go in longe garmentes, and loue to be saluted vpon the market, and desyre to syt hyest in the synagoges, and at the table. |
| 20:47 | They deuoure wedowes houses and that vnder a culoure of longe prayenge: These shal receaue the greater danacion. |

| 20:16 | He schal come, and distruye these tilieris, and yyue the vyneyerd to othere. And whanne this thing was herd, thei seiden to hym, God forbede. |
| 20:17 | But he bihelde hem, and seide, What thanne is this that is writun, The stoon which men bildynge repreueden, this is maad in to the heed of the corner? |
| 20:18 | Ech that schal falle on that stoon, schal be to-brisid, but on whom it schal falle, it schal al to-breke him. |
