LEB(i)
9 But why did you go out? To see a prophet?* Yes, I tell you, and even more than a prophet!
10 It is this man about whom it is written:
'Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.'* 11 Truly I say to you, among those born of women there has not arisen one greater than John the Baptist. But the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 12 But from the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven is treated violently, and the violent claim* it. 13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John, 14 and if you are willing to accept it,* he is Elijah, the one who is going to come.
