Matthew 22:41-46
Amplified Bible
41 Now while the Pharisees were [still] gathered together, Jesus asked them a question:(A) 42 “What do you [Pharisees] think of the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed)? Whose Son is He?” They said to Him, “[a]The son of David.” 43 Jesus asked them, “How is it then that David by the inspiration of the Spirit, calls Him ‘Lord,’ saying,
44
‘The Lord (the Father) said to my Lord (the Son, the Messiah),
“Sit at My right hand,
Until I put Your enemies under Your feet”’?(B)
45 So then, if David calls Him (the Son, the Messiah) ‘Lord,’ [b]how is He David’s son?” 46 No one was able to say a word to Him in answer, nor from that day on did anyone dare to question Him again.

Whose Son Is the Messiah?(A)
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,”(B) they replied.
43 He said to them, “How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls him ‘Lord’? For he says,
44 “‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
until I put your enemies
under your feet.”’[a](C)
45 If then David calls him ‘Lord,’ how can he be his son?” 46 No one could say a word in reply, and from that day on no one dared to ask him any more questions.(D)

41 Then He said to them, “How is it that people say that the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed) is David’s son?(A) 42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms,
‘The Lord (the Father) said to my Lord (the Son, the Messiah),
“Sit at My right hand,
43
Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’(B)
44 [a]So David calls Him (the Son) ‘Lord,’ and how then is He David’s son?”

a footstool for your feet.”’[a](C)
