Luke 7:18-23

JMNT(i) 18 Then John's disciples reported back [to him] about all these things. 19 So, upon calling a certain two of his disciples to himself, John sent [them] to the Lord, saying [by them], "Are You, Yourself, the One who is now progressively coming, or should we continue anticipating and hoping for a different One?" 20 Now when coming to be alongside and facing Him, the adult men said, "John the immerser (or: Baptist) sent us off with a mission to You, saying [by us], 'Are You, Yourself, the One who is now progressively coming, or should we continue anticipating and hoping for a different One [other MSS: another One of the same kind]?'" 21 Within that hour He cured or gave attentive care to or prescribed therapy to or instigated ongoing treatment for many folks from sicknesses and diseases, as well as [from] scourges (lacerating afflictions) and worthless breath-effects (miserable attitudes; bad spirits). Also, He by grace favored many blind people to be constantly seeing. 22 And so, with a discerning reply He said to them, "After journeying on your way, report back to John what things you men saw and heard: ‘blind people continue seeing again; lame folks’ continue walking around; lepers continue being cleansed. Also, ‘deaf folks continue hearing;’ dead people continue being raised up; ‘destitute ones are constantly being brought and told the message of goodness, ease and well-being!’ [Isa. 35:5-6; 26:14; 61:1] 23 "Further, whoever should not be caused to trip the spring of a trap or to stumble into a snare of offense at Me is a happy and blessed person."
