New Testament
Mark 12:13-17
Paying Taxes to Caesar
13The Jewish leaders sent some Pharisees and some Herodians to Jesus to try to trap him in what he said. 14They came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest and do not play favorites, since you are not partial to anyone,[] but you teach the way of God on the basis of the truth. Is it lawful to pay a tax to Caesar or not? 15Should we pay it or not?”
Since Jesus knew their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why do you keep testing me? Bring me a denarius so that I can look at it.”
16So they brought one.
He said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?”
“Caesar's,” they answered him.
17Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.”
And they were amazed at him.
