Haweis⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ Now when John's messengers were departed, he began to speak to the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? ²⁵ But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in delicate garments? Behold, they who indulge in soft raiment, and delicate food, are in king's palaces. ²⁶ But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. ²⁷ For this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
