Ang Pamangkot Parte sa Pagbayad sang Buhis(A)

13 Ginsugo nila ang pila ka mga Pariseo kag pila ka mga miyembro sang partido ni Herodes sa pagdakop-dakop kay Jesus paagi sa iya paghambal agod maakusar nila siya. 14 Gani nagkadto sila kay Jesus kag nagpamangkot, “Manunudlo, nahibaluan namon nga matuod ang imo ginasugid. Kay wala ka nagapadala-dala sa mga tawo bisan sin-o pa sila, kundi kon ano ang kamatuoran parte sa kabubut-on sang Dios sa mga tawo amo gid ang imo ginatudlo. Ano bala sa imo, husto bala nga kita nga mga Judio magbayad sang buhis sa Emperador sang Roma? Dapat bala kita magbayad ukon indi?” 15 Pero nahibaluan ni Jesus nga nagapakuno-kuno sila, gani nagsiling siya sa ila, “Ngaa bala ginatilawan ninyo ako nga dakpon paagi sa sini nga pamangkot? Abi dal-i ninyo ako diri sang kuwarta[a] kay tan-awon ko.” 16 Gani gindal-an nila siya. Dayon nagpamangkot siya sa ila, “Kay sin-o bala ini hitsura kag ngalan?” Nagsabat sila, “Iya sang Emperador.” 17 Gani nagsiling si Jesus sa ila, “Ti kundi ihatag ninyo sa Emperador ang iya sang Emperador, kag sa Dios ang iya sang Dios.” Kag natingala gid sila sa iya.

Paying the Imperial Tax to Caesar(A)

13 Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians(B) to Jesus to catch him(C) in his words. 14 They came to him and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay the imperial tax[a] to Caesar or not? 15 Should we pay or shouldn’t we?”

But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” 16 They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”

“Caesar’s,” they replied.

17 Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”(D)

And they were amazed at him.

  1. Mark 12:14 A special tax levied on subject peoples, not on Roman citizens

13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

14 And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.

16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

17 And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.

20 Gani naghulat pa gid sila sing kahigayunan. Nagpadala sila sing mga espiya nga nagpakuno-kuno nga maayo ang ila tuyo, agod kon may makita sila nga sala sa iya ginapanghambal iakusar nila siya sa gobernador. 21 Nagpamangkot ini nga mga espiya kay Jesus, “Manunudlo, nahibaluan namon nga husto ang imo ginapanghambal kag ginapanudlo. Kag wala ka sing may ginapasulabi bisan sin-o, kundi kon ano ang kamatuoran parte sa kabubut-on sang Dios sa mga tawo amo gid ang imo ginatudlo. 22 Ano bala sa imo, husto bala nga kita nga mga Judio magbayad sang buhis sa Emperador sang Roma ukon indi?” 23 Pero nahibaluan ni Jesus ang ila madaya nga tinutuyo, gani nagsiling siya sa ila, 24 “Abi pakitai ninyo ako sang kuwarta.[a] Kay sin-o bala hitsura kag ngalan ang nabutang dira?” Nagsabat sila, “Iya sang Emperador.” 25 Gani nagsiling si Jesus sa ila, “Ti kundi ihatag ninyo sa Emperador ang iya sang Emperador kag sa Dios ang iya sang Dios.” 26 Gani sa atubangan sang tanan wala gid nila siya madakpi sa iya mga paghambal. Kag tungod nga natingala sila sa sabat ni Jesus, naghipos na lang sila.

  1. 20:24 kuwarta: sa literal, denarius, nga kuwarta sang mga Romanhon.

Paying Taxes to Caesar(A)

20 Keeping a close watch on him, they sent spies, who pretended to be sincere. They hoped to catch Jesus in something he said,(B) so that they might hand him over to the power and authority of the governor.(C) 21 So the spies questioned him: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.(D) 22 Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”

23 He saw through their duplicity and said to them, 24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?”

“Caesar’s,” they replied.

25 He said to them, “Then give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s,(E) and to God what is God’s.”

26 They were unable to trap him in what he had said there in public. And astonished by his answer, they became silent.

20 And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.

21 And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way of God truly:

22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?

23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?

24 Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Caesar's.

25 And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.

26 And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
