International Children’s Bible

The Leaders Try to Trap Jesus

²⁰ So they waited for the right time to get Jesus. They sent some spies who acted as if they were good men. They wanted to trap Jesus in what he said so they could hand him over to the authority and power of the governor. ²¹ So the spies asked Jesus, “Teacher, we know that what you say and teach is true. You teach the same to all people. You always teach the truth about God’s way. ²² Tell us, is it right that we pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
