24 When they came to Capernaum, those who collected theltwo-drachma tax came to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay themtwo-drachma tax?” 25 He *said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs or poll-tax, from their sons or from strangers?” 26 When Peter said, “From strangers,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons arenexempt. 27 However, so that we do notooffend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will findpa shekel. Take that and give it to them for you and Me.” |
