Then they sent to him some of the Pharisees and the Herodians ,
to catch him in his words .
*
When they came ,
they said to him , »
Teacher ,
we know that you are true ,
and care about no man ;
for you do not regard the person of men ,
but teach the way of God in truth .
Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar ,
or not ?
*
Should we pay them ,
or should we not ?«
But knowing their hypocrisy ,
he said to them , »
Why do you put me to the test ?
Bring me a denarius ,
and let me look at it .«
*
And they brought one .
And he said to them , »
Whose likeness and inscription is this ?«
They said to him , »
Caesar '

Jesus said to them , »
Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar
s ,
and to God the things that are God
s .«
And they were amazed at him .
