Matthew 17:26-27

26When Peter said, “From strangers,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are 1exempt.

27However, so that we do not 23offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will find 4a shekel. Take that and give it to them for you and Me.”
