Matthew 11:7-15

Coverdale(i) 7 Whan they wente their waye, Iesus beganne to speake vnto the people, concernynge Ihon: What are ye gone out for to se in the wyldernes? Wolde ye se a rede shaken with the wynde? 8 Or what are ye gone out for to se? Wolde ye se a man clothed in soft rayment? Beholde, they that weare soft clothinge, are in kinges houses, 9 But what are ye gone out for to se? A prophet? Yee I saye vnto you, and more the a prophet. 10 For this is he, of who it is written: Beholde, I sende my messauger before thy face, which shal prepare thy waye before the. 11 Verely I saye vnto you: Amonge ye children of wemen arose there not a greater then Ihon the baptist. Not withstondinge he that is lesse in the kyngdome of Heauen, is greater then he. 12 From the tyme of Ihon baptist hither to, ye kyngdome of heauen suffreth violence, and the violent plucke it vnto them. 13 For all the prophetes and the lawe prophecied vnto Ihon. 14 Also yf ye wil receaue it, this is Helias, which shulde come. 15 Who so hath eares to heare, let hi heare.
