Matthew 22:16-22

16AndG2532 they sent outG649 unto himG846 theirG846 disciplesG3588G3101 withG3326 the HerodiansG3588G2265, sayingG3004, MasterG1320, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou artG1510 trueG227, andG2532 teachestG1321 the wayG3588G3598 of GodG3588G2316 inG1722 truthG225, neitherG3756 carestG3199 thouG4771 forG4012 anyG3762 man: forG1063 thou regardestG991 notG3756 the personG4383 of menG444.

17TellG3004 usG1473 thereforeG3767, WhatG5101 thinkestG1380 thouG4771? Is it lawfulG1832 to giveG1325 tributeG2778 unto CaesarG2541, orG2228 notG3756?

18ButG1161 JesusG3588G2424 perceivedG1097 theirG846 wickednessG3588G4189, and saidG3004, WhyG5101 tempt yeG3985 meG1473, ye hypocritesG5273?

19ShewG1925 meG1473 the tributeG3588G2778 moneyG3588G3546. AndG1161 they broughtG4374 unto himG846 a pennyG1220.

20AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto themG846, WhoseG5101 is thisG3778 imageG3588G1504 andG2532 superscriptionG3588G1923?

21They sayG3004 unto himG846, Cæsar’sG2541. ThenG5119 saith heG3004 unto themG846, RenderG591 thereforeG3767 unto CæsarG2541 the things which are Cæsar’sG2541; andG2532 unto GodG3588G2316 the things that are God’sG3588G2316.

22WhenG2532 they had heardG191 these words, they marvelledG2296, andG2532 leftG863 himG846, and went their wayG565.
