Disciples’ Literal New Testament
The Pharisees Try To Snare Jesus: Shall We Pay Taxes To Caesar?
15 Then the Pharisees, having gone, took counsel so that they might snare Him in a statement. 16 And they send-forth their disciples to Him, with the Herodians[a], saying, “Teacher, we know that You are truthful, and You teach the way of God in truth. And You are not concerned about [pleasing] anyone, for You do not look at the face[b] of people. 17 Tell us then, what seems right to You? Is it lawful to give a poll-tax[c] to Caesar, or not?”
