Matthew 22:17-22

17Tell us then, what do You think? Is it permissible [according to Jewish law and tradition] to pay a poll-tax to Caesar, or not?”

18But Jesus, aware of their malice, asked, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites?

19Show me the coin used for the poll-tax.” And they brought Him a denarius [a day’s wage].

20And Jesus said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?”

21They said, “[The Emperor Tiberius] Caesar’s.” Then He said to them, “Then pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s.”

22When they heard this, they were caught off guard, and they left Him and went away.
