*
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 ."
