New American Standard Bible

Chapter 20

37But as for the fact that the dead are raised, even Moses revealed this in the passage about the burning bush, where he calls the Lord THE God OF ABRAHAM, THE God OF ISAAC, AND THE God OF JACOB. 38Now He is not the God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to Him.' 39Some of the scribes answered and said, 'Teacher, You have spoken well.' 40For they did not have the courage to question Him any longer about anything.
41But He said to them, 'How is it that they say the Christ is David’s son?
42For David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘THE Lord SAID TO MY Lord, 'SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND, 43UNTIL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES A FOOTSTOOL FOR YOUR FEET.'?’
44Therefore David calls Him ‘Lord,’ and so how is He his son?'
45And while all the people were listening, He said to the disciples, 46Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love personal greetings in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets, 47who devour widows’ houses, and for appearance’s sake offer long prayers. These will receive all the more condemnation.'
King James Version

Chapter 20

37Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. 38For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
39Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said. 40And after that they durst not ask him any question at all. 41And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David's son? 42And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 43Till I make thine enemies thy footstool. 44David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son? 45Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples, 46Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; 47Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.

Chapter 20

37Moses even indicated in the passage about the burning bush that the dead are raised, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 38He is not the God of the dead but of the living, because all are living to him."
39Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you have spoken well." 40And they no longer dared to ask him anything.
41Then he said to them, "How can they say that the Messiah is the son of David?
42For David himself says in the Book of Psalms:The Lord declared to my Lord,'Sit at my right hand 43until I make your enemies your footstool.'
44David calls him 'Lord.' How, then, can the Messiah be his son? "
45While all the people were listening, he said to his disciples, 46"Beware of the scribes, who want to go around in long robes and who love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets. 47They devour widows' houses and say long prayers just for show. These will receive harsher judgment."
New Living Translation

Chapter 20

37But now, as to whether the dead will be raised — even Moses proved this when he wrote about the burning bush. Long after Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had died, he referred to the Lord as ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ 38So he is the God of the living, not the dead, for they are all alive to him.'
39Well said, Teacher!' remarked some of the teachers of religious law who were standing there. 40And then no one dared to ask him any more questions.
41Then Jesus presented them with a question. 'Why is it,' he asked, 'that the Messiah is said to be the son of David?
42For David himself wrote in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, Sit in the place of honor at my right hand 43until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.’
44Since David called the Messiah ‘Lord,’ how can the Messiah be his son?'
45Then, with the crowds listening, he turned to his disciples and said, 46Beware of these teachers of religious law! For they like to parade around in flowing robes and love to receive respectful greetings as they walk in the marketplaces. And how they love the seats of honor in the synagogues and the head table at banquets. 47Yet they shamelessly cheat widows out of their property and then pretend to be pious by making long prayers in public. Because of this, they will be severely punished.'

Chapter 20

37But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 38Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.” 39Then some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you have spoken well.” 40For they no longer dared to ask him any question.
41But he said to them, “How can they say that the Christ is David’s son? 42For David himself says in the Book of Psalms, “‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43until I make your enemies your footstool.”’ 44David thus calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
45And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples, 46“Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts, 47who devour widows’ houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.”
New International Version

Chapter 20

37But in the account of the burning bush, even Moses showed that the dead rise, for he calls the Lord 'the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.' 38He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.'
39Some of the teachers of the law responded, 'Well said, teacher!' 40And no one dared to ask him any more questions.
41Then Jesus said to them, 'Why is it said that the Messiah is the son of David?
42David himself declares in the Book of Psalms: ''The Lord said to my Lord: 'Sit at my right hand 43until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.''
44David calls him 'Lord.' How then can he be his son?'
45While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his disciples, 46Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. 47They devour widows' houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.'
New King James Version

Chapter 20

37But even Moses showed in the burning bush passage that the dead are raised, when he called the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ 38For He is not the God of the dead but of the living, for all live to Him.”
39Then some of the scribes answered and said, “Teacher, You have spoken well.” 40But after that they dared not question Him anymore.
41And He said to them, “How can they say that the Christ is the Son of David?
42Now David himself said in the Book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, 43Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” ’
44Therefore David calls Him ‘Lord’; how is He then his Son?”
45Then, in the hearing of all the people, He said to His disciples, 46“Beware of the scribes, who desire to go around in long robes, love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts, 47who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
