Matthew 22:13-19
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 22
13Then the king said to the servants, ‘Tie his hands and feet, and throw him into the outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth in that place.’ 14For many are called, but few are chosen.'
15Then the Pharisees went and plotted together how they might trap Him in what He said.
16And they *sent their disciples to Him, along with the Herodians, saying, 'Teacher, we know that You are truthful and teach the way of God in truth, and do not care what anyone thinks; for You are not partial to anyone.
17Tell us then, what do You think? Is it permissible to pay a poll-tax to Caesar, or not?'
18But Jesus perceived their malice, and said, 'Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites?
19Show Me the coin used for the poll-tax.' And they brought Him a denarius.
King James Version
Chapter 22
13Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14For many are called, but few are chosen.
15Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
16And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
17Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
18But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites
19Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
