Luke 20:19-26

19And the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the scribesG1122 soughtG2212 the sameG846 hourG5610 to lay handsG5495 on him, and they fearedG5399 the peopleG2992; for they knewG1097 that he had spoken this parableG3850 of them.

20And having watchedG3906 [him], they sentG649 out suborned persons, pretending to beG1510 justG1342 menG1342, that they might take holdG1949 of him in [his] language, soG2443 that they might deliverG3860 him up to the powerG1849 and authorityG1849 of the governorG2232.

21And they askedG1905 him sayingG3004, TeacherG1320, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightlyG3723, and acceptest no [man's] person, but teachest with truthG225 the wayG3598 of 1GodG2316:

22Is it lawfulG1832 for us to giveG1325 tribute to CaesarG2541, or not?

23But perceiving their deceit he saidG3004 to them, Why do ye tempt me?

24Shew me a denariusG1220. Whose imageG1504 and superscription has it? And answeringG611 they saidG3004, Caesar's.

25And he saidG3004 to them, PayG591 thereforeG5106 what is Caesar's to CaesarG2541, and what is 2God's to 3GodG2316.

26And they were not ableG2480 to take holdG1949 of him in [his] expressions before the peopleG2992, and, wonderingG2296 at his answerG612, they were silentG4601.
