Seeker Overlay ON

* So they watched Him , and sent spies who pretended to be righteous , that they might seize on His words , in order to deliver Him to the power and the authority of the governor . * Then they asked Him , saying , "Teacher , we know that You say and teach rightly , and You do not show personal favoritism , but teach the way of God in truth : * Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not ?" * But He perceived their craftiness , and said to them , "Why do you test Me ? * Show Me a denarius . Whose image and inscription does it have ?" They answered and said , "Caesar 's ." * And He said to them , "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar 's , and to God the things that are God 's ." * But they could not catch Him in His words in the presence of the people . And they marveled at His answer and kept silent .
