The Message Bible MSG

22 Tell us: Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

23 He knew they were laying for him and said,

24 "Show me a coin. Now, this engraving, who does it look like and what does it say?"

25 "Caesar," they said. Jesus said, "Then give Caesar what is his and give God what is his."

26 Try as they might, they couldn't trap him into saying anything incriminating. His answer caught them off guard and left them speechless.

27 Some Sadducees came up. This is the Jewish party that denies any possibility of resurrection. They asked,

28 "Teacher, Moses wrote us that if a man dies and leaves a wife but no child, his brother is obligated to take the widow to wife and get her with child.

29 Well, there once were seven brothers. The first took a wife. He died childless.

30 The second married her and died,

31 then the third, and eventually all seven had their turn, but no child.

32 After all that, the wife died.

New International Version NIV

22 Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”

23 He saw through their duplicity and said to them,

24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?”“Caesar’s,” they replied.

25 He said to them, “Then give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”

26 They were unable to trap him in what he had said there in public. And astonished by his answer, they became silent.

27 Some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus with a question.

28 “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.

29 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a woman and died childless.

30 The second

31 and then the third married her, and in the same way the seven died, leaving no children.

32 Finally, the woman died too.
