Οἱ δὲ ἐλθόντες λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Διδάσκαλε, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀληθὴς εἶ, καὶ οὐ μέλει σοι περὶ οὐδενός· οὐ γὰρ βλέπεις εἰς πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπων, ἀλλ᾽ ἐπ᾽ ἀληθείας τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ διδάσκεις. Ἔξεστι κῆνσον Καίσαρι δοῦναι, ἢ οὔ;

RBT Hebrew Literal:
And those who have come are saying to himself, "Teacher, we have seen that you are a true one, and you are not concerning yourself around anyone, for you are not looking into a face of men, but on a truth you are teaching the Road of the God. Is it permitted to give a census-tax to Dictator in Perpetuity ("Caesar")? Shall we give or shall we not give?"
Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And they having come, say to him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and thou carest not for any one: for thou lookest not to the face of men, but in truth thou teachest the way of God: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or no?
LITV Translation:
And coming, they said to Him, Teacher, we know that you are true, and there is not a care to you about anyone, for you do not look to the face of men, but teach on the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
ESV Translation:
And they came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are true and do not care about anyone’s opinion. For you are not swayed by appearances, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?”
