Matthew(i)
20 And they watched hym, and sent forthe spyes whiche shoulde fayne them selues perfect, to take him in his wordes, and to delyuer him vnto the power and authoritie of the debitie.
21 And they axed him, saiynge: Mayster, we knowe that thou sayest and teachest right, neyther consyderest thou any mans degree, but teachest the waye of God truely.
22 Is it laufull for vs to geue Cesar tribute or no?
23 He perceyued theyr craftynes, and sayde vnto them. Why tempt ye me?
24 shewe me a peny. Whose ymage and superscription hath it? They aunswered and sayde: Cesars.
25 And he sayed vnto them: Geue then vnto Cesar, that which belongeth vnto Cesar: and to God that which partayneth to God.
26 And they coulde not reproue his saiynge before the people. But they maruayled at hys aunswere, and helde theyr peace.
27 Then came to him certaine of the Saduces which denye that there is anye resurreccyon. And they axed him,
28 saiynge: Maister, Moyses wrote vnto vs, yf anye mans brother dye hauyng a wyfe, and the same dye without yssue that then his brother shoulde take his wyfe, and rayse vp seede vnto hys brother.
29 There were .vij. brethren, and the fyrst toke a wyfe, & dyed without chyldren.
30 And the seconde toke the wyfe, and he dyed childlesse:
31 And the third toke her, and in likewyse the residue of the seuen. and left no chyldren behynde them, and died.
32 Laste of all the woman dyed also.
33 Nowe at the resurreccyon whose wife of them shal she be? For seuen had her to wyfe.
34 Iesus aunswered, & sayde vnto them. The chyldren of this world mary wyues, & are maryed.
35 But they which shalbe made worthy to enioye that worlde and the resurreccyon from death, neyther marye wyues, neyther are maryed,
36 nor yet can dye anye more. For they are equal vnto the angels, & are the sonnes of god in as muche as they are the chyldren of the resurreccion.
37 And that the dead shal ryse agayne euen. Moises signifyed besides the bushe, when he sayed: The Lord God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob.
38 For he is not the God of the dead, but of them which lyue. For al lyue in him.
39 Then certayne of the Pharises aunswered and sayd: Mayster thou haste wel sayde.
40 And after that durst they not axe him any question at all.
