Luke 20:20-25

20AndG2532 they watchedG3906 him, and sent forthG649 spiesG1455, which should feignG5271 themselvesG1438 just menG1342, thatG2443 they might take holdG1949 of hisG846 wordsG3056, that soG2443 they might deliverG3860 himG846 untoG1519 the powerG3588G746 andG2532 authorityG3588G1849 of the governorG3588G2232.

21AndG2532 they askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, MasterG1320, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou sayestG3004 andG2532 teachestG1321 rightlyG3723, neitherG3756 acceptest thouG2983 the personG4383 of any, butG235 teachestG1321 the wayG3588G3598 of GodG3588G2316 trulyG225:

22Is it lawfulG1832 for usG1473 to giveG1325 tributeG5411 unto CæsarG2541, orG2228 noG3756?

23ButG1161 he perceivedG2657 theirG846 craftinessG3588G3834, and saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, WhyG5101 tempt yeG3985 meG1473?

24ShewG1925 meG1473 a pennyG1220. WhoseG5101 imageG1504 andG2532 superscriptionG1923 hath itG2192? They answeredG611 andG1161 saidG3004, Cæsar’sG2541.

25AndG1161 he saidG3004 unto themG846, RenderG591 thereforeG5106 unto CæsarG2541 the thingsG3588 which be Cæsar’sG2541, andG2532 unto GodG3588G2316 the thingsG3588 which be God’sG3588G2316.
