Luke 20:19-24

¹⁹And the princes of priests, and the scribes, sought to lay on him hands or to lay hands on him in that hour, and they dreaded the people; for they knew that to them he said this likeness.

²⁰And they espied, and sent spies, that feigned themselves just, that they should take him in word, and betake him to the power of the prince, and to the power of the justice.

²¹And they asked him, and said, Master, we know, that rightly thou sayest and teachest or that thou sayest and teachest rightly; and thou takest not the person of man, but thou teachest in truth the way of God.

²²Is it leaveful to us to give tribute to the emperor or to Caesar, or nay?

²³And he beheld the deceit of them, and said to them, What tempt ye me?

²⁴Show ye to me a penny; whose image and superscription hath it? They answered, and said to him, The emperor’s or Caesar’s.
