Luke 20:20-22

New American Standard Bible

^20 (A)And so they watched Him ^[a]closely, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, in order ^(B)that they might catch Him in some statement, so that they could hand Him over to the jurisdiction and authority of ^(C)the governor. ²¹ And the spies questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, we know that You speak and teach correctly, and You ^[b]are not partial to anyone, but You teach the way of God on the basis of truth. ²² Is it ^[c]permissible for us ^(D)to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
