Psalms 10:8-18
He sitteth in the lurking- places of the villages; In the secret places doth he murder the innocent; His eyes are privily set against the helpless.He lurketh in secret as a lion in his covert; He lieth in wait to catch the poor: He doth catch the poor, when he draweth him in his net.He croucheth, he boweth down, And the helpless fall by his strong ones.He saith in his heart: God hath forgotten; He hideth his face, he will never see it.Arise, O Jehovah; O God, lift up thy hand: Forget not the poor.Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, And say in his heart, Thou wilt not require it?Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: The helpless committeth himself unto thee; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.Break thou the arm of the wicked; And as for the evil man, seek out his wickedness till thou find none.Jehovah is King for ever and ever: The nations are perished out of his land.Jehovah, thou hast heard the desire of the meek: Thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear;To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, That man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.

Luke 20:19-26
And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he spake this parable against them.And they watched him, and sent forth spies, who feigned themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest not the person of any, but of a truth teachest the way of God:Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Cæsar, or not?But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them,Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription hath it? And they said, Cæsar’s.And he said unto them, Then render unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.And they were not able to take hold of the saying before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
