15 Then the Pharisees left and took counsel how they might entangle him in his word. 16 And they sent out unto him their disciples with those of Herod, saying, Master, we know that thou art a lover of truth and teachest the way of God with truth and that thou takest care for no man, for thou art no respecter of persons of men. 17 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar or not? 18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites? 19 Show me the coin of the tribute. And they presented unto him a denarius. 20 And he said unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? 21 They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then said he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s and unto God the things that are God’s. 22 When they had heard these words, they marvelled and left him and went away.
