Luke 20:20-26

20SoG2532 they watched Him closelyG3906 and sentG649 spiesG1455 who pretendedG5271 to beG1510 sincereG1342. They were hopingG2443 to catchG1949 Him in HisG846 wordsG3056 in orderG5620 to hand Him overG3860G846 to theG3588 ruleG746 andG2532 authorityG1849 of theG3588 governorG2232. 21“TeacherG1320,” they inquiredG1905G846G3004, “we knowG1492 thatG3754 You speakG3004 andG2532 teachG1321 correctlyG3723. You show no partialityG3756G2983G4383 butG235 teachG1321 theG3588 wayG3598 of GodG2316 in accordance withG1909 the truthG225. 22Is it lawfulG1832 for usG1473 to payG1325 taxesG5411 to CaesarG2541 orG2228 notG3756?”

23ButG1161 Jesus saw throughG2657 theirG846 duplicityG3834 and saidG2036 toG4314 themG846, 24“ShowG1166 MeG1473 a denariusG1220.1 WhoseG5101 imageG1504 andG2532 inscriptionG1923 are on itG2192?”

“Caesar’sG2541,” they answeredG2036.

SoG5106 Jesus toldG2036G4314 themG846, “GiveG591 to CaesarG2541 whatG3588 is Caesar’sG2541, andG2532 to GodG2316 whatG3588 is God’sG2316.”

26AndG2532 they were unableG3756G2480 to trap Him inG1949 HisG846 wordsG4487 beforeG1726 theG3588 peopleG2992. AndG2532 amazedG2296 atG1909 HisG846 answerG612, they fell silentG4601.
