La parabole du grand repas de mariage
1
Jesus answered and spoke again in parables to them, saying,
2
"The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,
3
and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast, but they would not come.
4
Again he sent out other servants, saying, 'Tell those who are invited, "Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast!"'
5
But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise,
6
and the rest grabbed his servants, and treated them shamefully, and killed them.
7
When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
8
"Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren't worthy.
9
Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the marriage feast.'
10
Those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. The wedding was filled with guests.
11
But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn't have on wedding clothing,
12
and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?' He was speechless.
13
Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.'
14
For many are called, but few chosen."

15
Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.
16
They sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and teach the way of God in truth, no matter whom you teach, for you aren't partial to anyone.
17
Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
18
But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?
19
Show me the tax money." They brought to him a denarius.
20
He asked them, "Whose is this image and inscription?"
21
They said to him, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
22
When they heard it, they marveled, and left him, and went away.
Une question sur la résurrection des morts
23
On that day Sadducees (those who say that there is no resurrection) came to him. They asked him,
24
saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed for his brother.'
25
Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no seed left his wife to his brother.
26
In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
27
After them all, the woman died.
28
In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her."
29
But Jesus answered them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
30
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like God's angels in heaven.
31
But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven't you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
32
'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?' God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."
33
When the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.
Le commandement le plus important
34
But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
35
One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.
36
"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"
37
Jesus said to him, "'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
A second likewise is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
40
The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."
Le Messie et David
41
Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,
42
saying, "What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "Of David."
43
He said to them, "How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,
44
'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet?'
45
"If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?"
46
No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forth.

La parabole du grand repas de mariage
1
Jésus prit la parole et leur parla de nouveau en paraboles. Il dit :
2
« Le royaume des cieux ressemble à un roi qui fit des noces pour son fils.
3
Il envoya ses serviteurs appeler ceux qui étaient invités aux noces, mais ils ne voulurent pas venir.
4
Il envoya encore d'autres serviteurs, avec cet ordre : ‘Dites aux invités : J'ai préparé mon festin ; mes bœufs et mes bêtes grasses sont tués, tout est prêt, venez aux noces.’
5
Mais eux, négligeant l'invitation, s'en allèrent l'un à son champ, un autre à ses affaires.
6
Les autres s’emparèrent des serviteurs, les maltraitèrent et les tuèrent.
7
[A cette nouvelle, ] le roi se mit en colère ; il envoya ses troupes, fit mourir ces meurtriers et brûla leur ville.
8
Alors il dit à ses serviteurs : ‘Les noces sont prêtes, mais les invités n'en étaient pas dignes.
9
Allez donc dans les carrefours et invitez aux noces tous ceux que vous trouverez.’
10
Ces serviteurs s’en allèrent sur les routes, ils rassemblèrent tous ceux qu'ils trouvèrent, mauvais et bons, et la salle des noces fut remplie d’invités.
11
Le roi entra pour les voir, et il aperçut là un homme qui n'avait pas mis d'habit de noces.
12
Il lui dit : ‘Mon ami, comment as-tu pu entrer ici sans avoir d'habit de noces ?’Cet homme resta la bouche fermée.
13
Alors le roi dit aux serviteurs : ‘Attachez-lui les pieds et les mains, [emmenez-le et] jetez-le dans les ténèbres extérieures, où il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents.’
14
En effet, beaucoup sont invités, mais peu sont choisis. »
L'impôt payé à l'empereur
15
Alors les pharisiens allèrent tenir conseil sur les moyens de prendre Jésus au piège de ses propres paroles.
16
Ils envoyèrent vers lui leurs disciples avec les hérodiens. Ils lui dirent : « Maître, nous savons que tes paroles sont vraies et que tu enseignes le chemin de Dieu en toute vérité, sans te laisser influencer par personne, car tu ne regardes pas à l'apparence des personnes.
17
Dis-nous donc ce que tu en penses : est-il permis, ou non, de payer l'impôt à l'empereur ? »
18
Mais Jésus, connaissant leur méchanceté, répondit : « Pourquoi me tendez-vous un piège, hypocrites ?
19
Montrez-moi la monnaie avec laquelle on paie l'impôt. » Ils lui présentèrent une pièce de monnaie.
20
Il leur demanda : « De qui porte-t-elle l'effigie et l'inscription ? »
21
« De l'empereur », lui répondirent-ils. Alors il leur dit : « Rendez donc à l'empereur ce qui est à l'empereur et à Dieu ce qui est à Dieu. »
22
Etonnés de ce qu'ils entendaient, ils le quittèrent et s'en allèrent.
Une question sur la résurrection des morts
23
Le même jour, les sadducéens, qui disent qu'il n'y a pas de résurrection, vinrent trouver Jésus et lui posèrent cette question :
24
« Maître, Moïse a dit : Si quelqu'un meurt sans enfants, son frère épousera la veuve et donnera une descendance à son frère.
25
Or, il y avait parmi nous sept frères. Le premier s’est marié et est mort et, comme il n'avait pas d'enfants, il a laissé sa femme à son frère.
26
Il en est allé de même pour le deuxième, puis le troisième, et ce jusqu'au septième.
27
Après eux tous, la femme est morte [aussi].
28
A la résurrection, duquel des sept sera-t-elle donc la femme ? En effet, tous l'ont épousée. »
29
Jésus leur répondit : « Vous êtes dans l'erreur parce que vous ne connaissez ni les Ecritures, ni la puissance de Dieu.
30
En effet, à la résurrection, les hommes et les femmes ne se marieront pas, mais ils seront comme les anges de Dieu dans le ciel.
31
En ce qui concerne la résurrection des morts, n'avez-vous pas lu ce que Dieu vous a dit :
32
Je suis le Dieu d'Abraham, le Dieu d'Isaac et le Dieu de Jacob ? Dieu n'est pas le Dieu des morts, mais des vivants. »
33
La foule qui écoutait fut frappée par l'enseignement de Jésus.
Le commandement le plus important
34
Les pharisiens apprirent qu'il avait réduit au silence les sadducéens. Ils se rassemblèrent
35
et l'un d'eux, professeur de la loi, lui posa cette question pour le mettre à l'épreuve :
36
« Maître, quel est le plus grand commandement de la loi ? »
37
Jésus lui répondit : « Tu aimeras le Seigneur, ton Dieu, de tout ton cœur, de toute ton âme et de toute ta pensée.
38
C'est le premier commandement et le plus grand.
39
Et voici le deuxième, qui lui est semblable : Tu aimeras ton prochain comme toi-même.
40
De ces deux commandements dépendent toute la loi et les prophètes. »
Le Messie et David
41
Comme les pharisiens se trouvaient rassemblés, Jésus les interrogea
42
en ces termes : « Que pensez-vous du Messie ? De qui est-il le fils ? » Ils lui répondirent : « De David. »
43
Et Jésus leur dit : « Comment donc David, animé par l'Esprit, peut-il l'appeler Seigneur lorsqu'il dit :
44
Le Seigneur a dit à mon Seigneur : ‘Assieds-toi à ma droite jusqu'à ce que j'aie fait de tes ennemis ton marchepied’ ?
45
Si donc David l'appelle Seigneur, comment peut-il être son fils ? »
46
Aucun ne put lui répondre un mot. Et, depuis ce jour, personne n'osa plus lui poser de questions.
