Matthew 11:9-15 But what went ye out to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more eminent than a prophet.

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ But what went ye out to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more eminent than a prophet. ¹⁰ For this is he for whom it was Written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee. ¹¹ Verily I say to you, in the begotten of women has there not risen a greater than John the Immerser; but the less in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he. ¹² From the days of John the Immerser till now the kingdom of the heavens is achieved by force, and they committing violence seize it eagerly. ¹³ For all the prophets, And the law prophesied till John. ¹⁴ And if ye will receive, this is Elias he about to come. ¹⁵ He having ears to hear, let him hear.
