20 - The leaders watched Jesus. They sent spies, pretending to be sincere, so they might catch him in something he said, and then they could deliver him up to the authority and jurisdiction of the Roman governor. 21 So they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you teach and speak rightly, and show no partiality, but teach the true way of God. 22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar?” [To deny Caesar was punishable by death.] 23 But he knew what they were up to. 24 “Show me a denarius,” he said, and looking at it he asked them, “Whose inscription and likeness is this?” They said, “Caesar's.” 25 Then he said, “So render to Caesar that which is Caesar's, and to God that which is God's.”
26 Marveling at his answer they became silent. They were unable to catch him in his words.
