4The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?
4The baptism of John, was it of heaven or of men?
5And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why did ye not believe him?
5And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why have ye not believed him?

13And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; it may be they will reverence him.

14But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned one with another, saying, This is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
14But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; [come,] let us kill him, that the inheritance may become ours.
15And they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
15And having cast him forth out of the vineyard, they killed [him]. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?

17But he looking at them said, What then is this that is written, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone?
18Every one that falleth on that stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
18Every one falling on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.

33In the resurrection therefore of which of them does she become wife, for the seven had her as wife?

35but they who are counted worthy to have part in that world, and the resurrection from among [the] dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;
36for neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
