* And the disciples of John shewed (5656 ) him of all these things . * And John calling (5666 ) unto him two of his disciples sent (5656 ) them to Jesus , saying (5723 ), Art (5748 ) thou he that should come (5740 )? or look we for (5725 ) another ? * When the men were come (5637 ) unto him , they said (5627 ), John Baptist hath sent (5758 ) us unto thee , saying (5723 ), Art (5748 ) thou he that should come (5740 )? or look we for (5719 ) (5725 ) another ? * And in that same hour he cured (5656 ) many of their infirmities and plagues , and of evil spirits ; and unto many that were blind he gave (5662 ) sight (5721 ). * Then Jesus answering (5679 ) said (5627 ) unto them , Go your way (5679 ), and tell (5657 ) John what things ye have seen (5627 ) and heard (5656 ); how that the blind see (5719 ), the lame walk (5719 ), the lepers are cleansed (5743 ), the deaf hear (5719 ), the dead are raised (5743 ), to the poor the gospel is preached (5743 ). * And blessed is (5748 ) he , whosoever shall not be offended (5686 ) in me . * And when the messengers of John were departed (5631 ), he began (5662 ) to speak (5721 ) unto the people concerning John , What went ye out (5758 ) into the wilderness for to see (5664 )? A reed shaken (5746 ) with the wind ? * But what went ye out (5758 ) for to see (5629 )? A man clothed (5772 ) in soft raiment ? Behold (5628 ), they which are gorgeously apparelled , and live (5723 ) delicately , are (5748 ) in kings courts . * But what went ye out (5758 ) for to see (5629 )? A prophet ? Yea , I say (5719 ) unto you , and much more than a prophet . * This is (5748 ) he , of whom it is written (5769 ), Behold (5628 ), I send (5719 ) my messenger before thy face , which shall prepare (5692 ) thy way before thee . * For I say (5719 ) unto you , Among those that are born of women there is (5748 ) not a greater prophet than John the Baptist : but he that is least in the kingdom of God is (5748 ) greater than he . * And all the people that heard (5660 ) him , and the publicans , justified (5656 ) God , being baptized (5685 ) with the baptism of John . * But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected (5656 ) the counsel of God against themselves , being not baptized (5685 ) of him . * And the Lord said (5627 ), Whereunto then shall I liken (5692 ) the men of this generation ? and to what are they (5748 ) like ? * They are (5748 ) like unto children sitting (5740 ) in the marketplace , and calling (5719 ) (5723 ) one to another , and saying (5719 ) (5723 ), We have piped (5656 ) unto you , and ye have not danced (5662 ); we have mourned (5656 ) to you , and ye have not wept (5656 ). * For John the Baptist came (5754 ) neither eating (5723 ) bread nor drinking (5723 ) wine ; and ye say (5719 ), He hath (5719 ) a devil . * The Son of man is come (5754 ) eating (5723 ) and drinking (5723 ); and ye say (5719 ), Behold (5628 ) a gluttonous man , and a winebibber , a friend of publicans and sinners ! * But wisdom is justified (5681 ) of all her children .
