The King James Version Bible

Mark 12:9-15

  1. What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.

  2. And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:

  3. This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

  4. And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way.

  5. And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

  6. And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

  7. Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.
