Matthew 17:24-26

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁴ And when they had come to Capernaum, those who received the temple tax came to Peter, and said, “Does not your Master pay temple taxes?

²⁵ He said, “Yes.” And when he had come into the house, Jesus stopped him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take tribute (or temple taxes) - from their children, or from strangers?

²⁶ Peter said to Him, “From strangers.” Then Jesus said to him, “Then the children are free.”
