Matthew 17:26 in Context — Matthew 17

24 E quando entraram em Cafarnaum, os cobradores da taxa de duas dracmas vieram a Pedro, e perguntaram: Vosso mestre não paga as duas dracmas?

25 Ele respondeu: Sim. Quando ele entrou em casa, Jesus o antecipou, dizendo: Que te parece, Simão? De quem os reis da terra cobram tributos ou taxas? Dos seus filhos, ou dos outros?

26 Pedro lhe respondeu: Dos outros. Jesus lhe disse: Logo, os filhos são livres de pagar.

27 Mas para não os ofendermos, vai ao mar, e lança o anzol. Toma o primeiro peixe que subir, e quando lhe abrir a boca, acharás uma moeda de quatro dracmas. Toma-a, e dá a eles por mim e por ti.
