Matthew 22:15-18

Lamsa(i) 15 Then the Pharisees went away and took counsel how to trap him by a word. 16 So they sent to him their disciples together with the Herodians, and they said to him, Teacher, we know that you are true, and you teach the way of God justly; and you do not favor any man, for you do not discriminate between men. 17 Tell us, therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay head-tax to Caesar, or not? 18 But Jesus knew their evil, and said, Why do you tempt me, O hypocrites?
