Luke 20:19-24

¹⁹And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.

²⁰And they kept watch on him, and sent out secret representatives, who were acting the part of good men, in order that they might get something from his words, on account of which they might give him up to the government and into the power of the ruler.

²¹And they put a question to him, saying, Master, we are certain that your teaching and your words are right, and that you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God:

²²Is it right for us to make payment of taxes to Caesar or not?

²³But he saw through their trick and said to them,

²⁴Let me see a penny. Whose image and name are on it? And they said, Caesar's.
