Matthew 22:17-22
English Standard Version
17 Tell us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay (A)taxes to (B)Caesar, or not?” 18 But Jesus, aware of their malice, said, “Why (C)put me to the test, you hypocrites? 19 Show me the coin for the tax.” And they brought him a denarius.[a] 20 And Jesus said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” 21 They said, “Caesar's.” Then he said to them, (D)“Therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” 22 When they heard it, they marveled. And they (E)left him and went away.
