Matthew 11:8-13

MLV(i) 8 But what did you go out to see? A man who has been dressed-up in soft garments? Behold, those who are wearing soft garments are in royal houses. 9 But why did you go out? To see a prophet? I say to you, Yes, and one who is more-than a prophet. 10 For this is he, concerning whom it has been written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will be preparing your way before you.’ 11 Assuredly I am saying to you, A greater man has not arisen among those born from women than John the Immerser. But he who is least in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he. 12 But from the days of John the Immerser until now the kingdom of the heavens suffers-violently and the violent ones seize it. 13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
