Psalms 10:8-18
He lies in wait near the villages. From ambushes, he murders the innocent. His eyes are secretly set against the helpless.He lurks in secret as a lion in his ambush. He lies in wait to catch the helpless. He catches the helpless when he draws him in his net.The helpless are crushed. They collapse. They fall under his strength.He says in his heart,“ God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.”Arise, Yahweh! God, lift up your hand! Don’t forget the helpless.Why does the wicked person condemn God, and say in his heart,“ God won’t call me into account?”But you do see trouble and grief. You consider it to take it into your hand. You help the victim and the fatherless.Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.Yahweh is King forever and ever! The nations will perish out of his land.Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more.

Luke 20:19-26
The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people— for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.They watched him and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.They asked him,“ Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,“ Why do you test me?Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered,“ Caesar’s.”He said to them,“ Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
