Matthew 17:22-27

221And while they were gatheringG4962 togetherG4962 in GalileeG1056, JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “The SonG5207 of ManG444 is goingG3195 to be 2deliveredG3860 into the handsG5495 of menG444; 23and 3they will killG615 Him, and He will be raisedG1453 on the thirdG5154 dayG2250.” And they were deeplyG4970 grievedG3076.

24When they cameG4334 to CapernaumG2746, thoseG3588 who collectedG2983 4the 5two-drachmaG1323 tax cameG4334 to PeterG4074 and saidG3004, “Does your teacherG1320 not payG5055 6the 7two-drachmaG1323 tax?” 25He saidG3004, “YesG3483.” And when he cameG2064 into the houseG3614, JesusG2424 spokeG4399 to him firstG4399, sayingG3004, “WhatG5101 do you thinkG1380, SimonG4613? From whomG5101 do the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 collectG2983 8customsG5056 orG2228 9poll-taxG2778, from their sonsG5207 orG2228 from strangersG245?” 26When Peter saidG5346, “From strangersG245,” JesusG2424 saidG5346 to him, “ThenG686 the sonsG5207 are 10exemptG1658. 27HoweverG1161, soG2443G3361 that we do not 1112offendG4624 them, goG4198 to the seaG2281 and throwG906 in a hookG44, and takeG142 the firstG4413 fishG2486 that comesG305 up; and when you openG455 its mouthG4750, you will findG2147 13a shekelG4715. TakeG2983 that and giveG1325 it to them for you and Me.”
