Luke 20:24-45

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

²⁵And he said, Then give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.

²⁶And they were not able to get anything from these words before the people: but they were full of wonder at his answer, and said nothing.
