Mark 12:13-17
131ThenG2532 they sentG649 someG5100 of the PhariseesG5330 and 2HerodiansG2265 to Him in orderG2443 to 3trapG64 Him in a statementG3056. 14They cameG2064 and saidG3004 to Him, “TeacherG1320, we knowG3609 that You are truthfulG227 and 4deferG3199 to noG3762 oneG3762; for You are not partialG991G4383 to anyG444, but teachG1321 the wayG3598 of GodG2316 in truthG225. Is it 5lawfulG1832 to payG1325 a poll-taxG2778 to CaesarG2541, orG2228 not? 15Shall we payG1325 orG2228 shall we not payG1325?” But He, knowingG3609 their hypocrisyG5272, saidG3004 to them, “WhyG5101 are you testingG3985 Me? BringG5342 Me a 6denariusG1220 to lookG3708 at.” 16They broughtG5342 one. And He saidG3004 to them, “WhoseG5101 likenessG1504 and inscriptionG1923 is thisG3778?” And they saidG3004 to Him, “Caesar’sG2541.” 17And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “7RenderG591 to CaesarG2541 the things that are Caesar’sG2541, and to GodG2316 the things that are God’sG2316.” And they 8were amazedG1569 at Him.
