(31) But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings: (32) I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead but of the living.

Matthew 22:31-32 GNB
(31) Now, as for the dead rising to life: haven't you ever read what God has told you? He said, (32) 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.' He is the God of the living, not of the dead."

Matthew 22:31-32 NWT
31 "As regards the resurrection of the dead, did you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32 'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? He is the God, not of the dead, but of the living."

Matthew 22:31-32 CEV

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
