Mark 12:14-16
English Standard Version
14 And they came and said to him, “Teacher, (A)we know that you are true and do not care about anyone's opinion. For (B)you are not swayed by appearances,[a] but truly teach (C)the way of God. Is it lawful to pay (D)taxes to (E)Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?” 15 But, knowing (F)their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why (G)put me to the test? Bring me (H)a denarius[b] and let me look at it.” 16 And they brought one. And he said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” They said to him, “Caesar's.”
