Luke 20:19–31

¹⁹And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he spake this parable against them. ²⁰And they watched him, and sent forth spies, who feigned themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor. ²¹And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest not the person of any, but of a truth teachest the way of God: ²²Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? ²³But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, ²⁴Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription hath it? And they said, Caesar’s. ²⁵And he said unto them, Then render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s. ²⁶And they were not able to take hold of the saying before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.

²⁷And there came to him certain of the Sadducees, they that say that there is no resurrection; ²⁸and they asked him, saying, Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, that if a man’s brother die, having a wife, and he be childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. ²⁹There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died childless; ³⁰and the second: ³¹and the third took her; and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
