New International Version

Matthew 22:35-42 New International Version (NIV)

35. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question:

36. “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37. Jesus replied: “ ‘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 greatest commandment.

39. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

40. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

41. While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

42. “What do you think about the Messiah? Whose son is he?” “The son of David,” they replied.
