Ang Pulong Sa Dios
Ang Pangutana bahin sa Pagbayad ug Buhis
(Mar. 12:13-17; Luc. 20:20-26)
15 Mibiya ang mga Pariseo ug nagplano sila kon unsaon nila pagdakop si Jesus pinaagi sa iyang gipanulti. 16 Unya gisugo nila ang uban sa ilang mga tinun-an ug ang pipila ka tawo ni Herodes. Nangutana sila kang Jesus, “Magtutudlo, nasayod kami nga tinuod ang imong gipanulti. Gitudlo mo sa mga tawo ang kamatuoran bahin sa kabubut-on sa Dios. Ug wala ka magpauyon-uyon sa mga tawo bisan kinsa pa sila. 17 Alang kanimo, husto ba nga kita nga mga Judio mobayad ug buhis sa Emperador sa Roma o dili?” 18 Apan nahibaloan ni Jesus ang ilang daotang tuyo, busa miingon siya kanila, “Mga tigpakaaron-ingnon! Ngano bang buot man ninyo akong bitikon pinaagi niana nga pangutana? 19 Pakit-a ninyo ako ug kuwarta nga gigamit sa pagbayad ug buhis.” Ug gidala nila kini kaniya. 20 Miingon si Jesus kanila, “Kang kinsa ba kining hitsura ug ngalan?” 21 Mitubag sila, “Iya sa Emperador.” Busa miingon si Jesus kanila, “Kon mao kana, ihatag ninyo sa Emperador ang iya sa Emperador, ug sa Dios ang iya sa Dios.” 22 Sa pagkadungog nila sa tubag ni Jesus natingala gayod sila. Busa gibiyaan na lang nila siya.

Paying the Imperial Tax to Caesar(A)
15 Then the Pharisees went out and laid plans to trap him in his words. 16 They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians.(B) “Teacher,” they said, “we know that you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are. 17 Tell us then, what is your opinion? Is it right to pay the imperial tax[a](C) to Caesar or not?”
18 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, “You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? 19 Show me the coin used for paying the tax.” They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
21 “Caesar’s,” they replied.
Then he said to them, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s,(D) and to God what is God’s.”
22 When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him and went away.(E)
