Give back to Caesar what belongs to Caesar—and to God what belongs to God.
This reading comprises the entirety of the caput below. However, whereas the given reading ends with verse21, the caput continues to verse 22. The reading is entirely from Matthew.

CXXVI. Ubi Pharisæi mittunt ad Ihesum dolo interrogantes, si licet tributum reddere cæsari?
(Where the Pharisees send to Jesus asking His teaching, if it be lawful to render tribute to Caesar.)

126: 1
Then the Pharisees going, consulted among themselves how to ensnare him in his speech. And they sent to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker and teachest the way of God in truth. Neither carest thou for any man: for thou dost not regard the person of men. Tell us therefore what dost thou think? Is it lawful to give tribute to Cæsar, or not?
2
But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you tempt me, ye hypocrites? Shew me the coin of the tribute. And they offered a penny.
3
And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and inscription is this? They say to him: Cæsar’s. Then he saith to them: Render therefore to Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s; and to God, the things that are God’s. And hearing this, they wondered and, leaving him, went their ways.
