Luke 7:19-30

¹⁹And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?

²⁰And when the men were come unto him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?

²¹In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.

²²And he answered and said unto them, Go and tell John the things which ye have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good tidings preached to them.

²³And blessed is he, whosoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.

²⁴And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?

²⁵But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

²⁶But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.

²⁸I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there is none greater than John: yet he that is but little in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

²⁹And all the people when they heard, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.

³⁰But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected for themselves the counsel of God, being not baptized of him.
