* Then they came again to Jerusalem . And as He was walking in the temple , the chief priests , the scribes , and the elders came to Him . * And they said to Him , "By what authority are You doing these things ? And who gave You this authority to do these things ?" * But Jesus answered and said to them , "I also will ask you one question ; then answer Me , and I will tell you by what authority I do these things : * The baptism of John--was it from heaven or from men ? Answer Me ." * And they reasoned among themselves , saying , "If we say , "From heaven ,' He will say , "Why then did you not believe him ?' * But if we say , "From men "'--they feared the people , for all counted John to have been a prophet indeed . * So they answered and said to Jesus , "We do not know ." And Jesus answered and said to them , "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things ."
