Matthew 17:25-27

Legacy Standard Bible

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 ^(A)tolls or ^(B)taxes, from their sons or from strangers?” ²⁶ And when Peter said, “From strangers,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are ^[a]exempt. ²⁷ However, so that we do not ^[b](C)offend 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 find a ^[c]stater. Take that and give it to them for Me and you.”
