Responsorial Psalm
1Alleluia. Of the return of Haggai and Zachariah. Blessed is the man who fears the Lord. He will prefer his commandments exceedingly.
2His offspring will be powerful on the earth. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
7The just one will be an everlasting memorial. He will not fear a report of disasters. His heart is prepared to hope in the Lord.
8His heart has been confirmed. He will not be disturbed, until he looks down upon his enemies.
9He has distributed, he has given to the poor. His justice shall remain from age to age. His horn shall be exalted in glory.
Gospel
13And they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to him, so that they might trap him with words. 14And these, arriving, said to him: “Teacher, we know that you are truthful and that you do not favor anyone; for you do not consider the appearance of men, but you teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give the tribute to Caesar, or should we not give it?” 15And knowing their skill in deception, he said to them: “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, so that I may see it.” 16And they brought it to him. And he said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.” 17So in response, Jesus said to them, “Then render to Caesar, the things that are of Caesar; and to God, the things that are of God.” And they wondered over him.
