Mark 12:15-18 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

15. Should we pay or shouldn't we?" But Jesus knew what they were trying to do. So he asked, "Why are you trying to trap me? Bring me a silver coin. Let me look at it."

16. They brought the coin. He asked them, "Whose picture is this? And whose words?" "Caesar's," they replied.

17. Then Jesus said to them, "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. And give to God what belongs to God." They were amazed at him.

18. The Sadducees came to Jesus with a question. They do not believe that people rise from the dead.
