Mark 12:15-17

Contemporary English Version

¹⁵ Jesus knew what they were up to, and he said, “Why are you trying to test me? Show me a coin!”

¹⁶ They brought him a silver coin, and he asked, “Whose picture and name are on it?”

“The Emperor's,” they answered.

¹⁷ Then Jesus told them, “Give the Emperor what belongs to him and give God what belongs to God.” The men were amazed at Jesus.
