99:1
MATT. XVII, 21-26; MARC. IX, 30, 31; LUC. IX, 44, 45. Conversantibus autem eis in Galilæa, dixit illis iesus: Filius hominis tradendus est in manus hominum, et occident eum, et tertia die resurget. At illi ignorabant verbum, et timebant eum interrogare. Et contristati sunt vehementer. Et cum venissent Capharnaum, accesserunt qui didrachma accipiebant ad Parum, et dixerunt ei: Magister vester non solvit didrachma? Ait: Etiam. Et cum intrasset domum, praevenit eum Jesus, dicens: Quid tibi videtur, Simon ? Reges terræ a quibus accipiunt tributum vel censum? a Hliis suis, an ab alienis? Et ille dixit: Ab alienis. Dixit illi Jesus: Ergo liberi sunt filii.
(Matt. xvii, 21-26; Mark ix, 30, 31; Luke ix, 44, 45.) And while they were abiding together in Galilee, Jesus said to them: The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall kill him, and the third day he shall rise again. But they understood not the saying, and were afraid to ask him; and they were exceedingly grieved. And when they had come to Capernaum, they that received the didrachmas came to Peter and said to him: Doth not your master pay the didrachma? He said: Yes. And when he had entered into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying: What is thy opinion, Simon? The kings of the earth, of whom do they receive tribute or custom? Of their own children, or of strangers? And he said: Of strangers. Jesus said to him: Then the children are free.
（馬太福音十七21-26；馬可福音九30-31；路加福音九44-45。）他們同在加利利的時候，耶穌對他們說：「人子將要被交在人手裡，他們要殺害他，第三日他要復活。」門徒卻不明白這話，又不敢問他，並且甚是憂愁。他們到了迦百農，收丁稅（兩個半舍客勒）的人來見彼得，說：「你們的夫子不納丁稅嗎？」彼得說：「納。」他進了屋子，耶穌先向他說：「西門，你的意思如何？世上的君王向誰徵收關稅、丁稅？是向自己的兒子呢，還是向外人呢？」彼得說：「是向外人。」耶穌對他說：「既然如此，兒子就可以免稅了。」
99:2
Ut autem non scandalizemus eos, vade ad mare, et mitte bamum: et eum piseem qui primus ascenderit, toile; et aperto ore ejus, invenies staterem: illum sumens, da eis pro me et te.
But that we may not scandalize them, go thou to the sea and cast a hook; and take up the first fish that cometh up; and when thou hast opened its mouth, thou shalt find a stater; take that, and give it to them for me and for thee.
「但恐怕觸怒他們，你且往海邊去釣魚，把先釣上來的魚拿起來，開了牠的口，必得一塊錢（司他特），可以拿去給他們，作你我的稅銀。」
