New Testament

Matthew 22:37-46 Modern English Version (MEV)

37. Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’

38. This is the first and great commandment.

39. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’

40. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”

41. While the Pharisees were assembled, ­Jesus asked them,

42. “What do you think of the Christ? Whose Son is He?”They said to Him, “The Son 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 at My right hand,until I make Your enemiesYour footstool” ’?

45. If David then calls Him ‘Lord,’ how is He his Son?”

46. No one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare to ask Him any more questions.
