New Testament

Luke 20:38-47 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

38. Now He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for all live to Him."

39. Some of the scribes answered and said, "Teacher, You have spoken well."

40. For they did not have courage to question Him any longer about anything.

41. Then He said to them, "How is it that they say the Christ is David's son?

42. For David himself says in the book of Psalms, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand,

43. Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet."'

44. Therefore David calls Him 'Lord,' and how is He his son?"

45. And while all the people were listening, He said to the disciples,

46. "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love respectful greetings in the market places, and chief seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets,

47. who devour widows' houses, and for appearance's sake offer long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation."
