* But they sent some of the Pharisees to Jesus afterward , and some of the Herodians to entrap him in conversation . * So when they came , they said . "Teacher , we know that you are sincere and are not afraid of any one , for you do not regard the face of men ; nay , but you reach the way of God in truth . Is it right to pay poll - tax to Caesar or not ? * Shall we pay , or not pay ?" But he , knowing well their hypocrisy , said to them . "Why are you testing me ? Bring me a dollar for me to look at ." * And they brought it . "Whose likeness and inscription is this ?" "Caesars ," they answered . * And Jesus said , "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesars , and to God , the things that are Gods ." They were amazed at him .
