22And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men;

23and they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised up. And they were exceeding sorry.

24And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received the half-shekel came to Peter, and said, Doth not your teacher pay the half-shekel?

25He saith, Yea. And when he came into the house, Jesus spake first to him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive toll or tribute? from their sons, or from strangers?

26And when he said, From strangers, Jesus said unto him, Therefore the sons are free.

27But, lest we cause them to stumble, go thou to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a shekel: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
