New International Version

Mark 12:15-19 New International Version (NIV)

15. Should we pay or shouldn’t we?” But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.”

16. They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they replied.

17. Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.” And they were amazed at him.

18. Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question.

19. “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.
