Matthew 17:27


Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

“But so that we may not offend them, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take the first fish you catch. When you open its mouth, you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for My tax and yours.”


World English Bible (WEB)

But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”


Strong's King James

Notwithstanding{G1161}, lest{G3363} we should offend{G4624}{(G5661)} them{G846}, go thou{G4198}{(G5679)} to{G1519} the sea{G2281}, and cast{G906}{(G5628)} an hook{G44}, and{G2532} take up{G142}{(G5657)} the fish{G2486} that first{G4412} cometh up{G305}{(G5631)}; and{G2532} when thou hast opened{G455}{(G5660)} his{G846} mouth{G4750}, thou shalt find{G2147}{(G5692)} a piece of money{G4715}: that{G1565} take{G2983}{(G5631)}, and give{G1325}{(G5628)} unto them{G846} for{G473} me{G1700} and{G2532} thee{G4675}.
