Matthew 17:26-27

New International Reader's Version

²⁶ “From others,” Peter answered.

“Then the children don’t have to pay,” Jesus said to him. ²⁷ “But we don’t want to make them angry. So go to the lake and throw out your fishing line. Take the first fish you catch. Open its mouth. There you will find the exact coin you need. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”
