King James Version (KJV)

1 Kings 6:14-7:12

6:14So Solomon built the house, and finished it. 6:15And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling: and he covered them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir. 6:16And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built them for it within, even for the oracle, even for the most holy place. 6:17And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long. 6:18And the cedar of the house within was carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen. 6:19And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD. 6:20And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar. 6:21So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold. 6:22And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that was by the oracle he overlaid with gold. 6:23And within the oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high. 6:24And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits. 6:25And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubims were of one measure and one size. 6:26The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub. 6:27And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house. 6:28And he overlaid the cherubims with gold. 6:29And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without. 6:30And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without. 6:31And for the entering of the oracle he made doors of olive tree: the lintel and side posts were a fifth part of the wall. 6:32The two doors also were of olive tree; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold, and spread gold upon the cherubims, and upon the palm trees. 6:33So also made he for the door of the temple posts of olive tree, a fourth part of the wall. 6:34And the two doors were of fir tree: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding. 6:35And he carved thereon cherubims and palm trees and open flowers: and covered them with gold fitted upon the carved work. 6:36And he built the inner court with three rows of hewed stone, and a row of cedar beams. 6:37In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif: 6:38And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.

7:1But Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.7:2He built also the house of the forest of Lebanon; the length thereof was an hundred cubits, and the breadth thereof fifty cubits, and the height thereof thirty cubits, upon four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams upon the pillars.7:3And it was covered with cedar above upon the beams, that lay on forty five pillars, fifteen in a row.7:4And there were windows in three rows, and light was against light in three ranks.7:5And all the doors and posts were square, with the windows: and light was against light in three ranks.7:6And he made a porch of pillars; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth thereof thirty cubits: and the porch was before them: and the other pillars and the thick beam were before them.7:7Then he made a porch for the throne where he might judge, even the porch of judgment: and it was covered with cedar from one side of the floor to the other.7:8And his house where he dwelt had another court within the porch, which was of the like work. Solomon made also an house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken to wife, like unto this porch.7:9All these were of costly stones, according to the measures of hewed stones, sawed with saws, within and without, even from the foundation unto the coping, and so on the outside toward the great court.7:10And the foundation was of costly stones, even great stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.7:11And above were costly stones, after the measures of hewed stones, and cedars.7:12And the great court round about was with three rows of hewed stones, and a row of cedar beams, both for the inner court of the house of the LORD, and for the porch of the house.

Matthew 22:15-22

15Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.16And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.17Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?18But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?19Show me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.20And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?21They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.22When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.

Mark 12:13-17

13And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.14And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?15Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.16And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.17And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.
