Matthew 11:9-14 And if not so, What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.

Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ And if not so, What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet. ¹⁰ For this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, to prepare the way before you. ¹¹ Truly I say to you, that among those who are born of women, there has never risen one who is greater than John the Baptist; and yet even the least person in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. ¹² From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been administered by force, and only those in power control it. ¹³ For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. ¹⁴ And if you wish, accept it, that he is Elijah who was to come.
