“What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?” “Therefore the children are exempt. But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”
