Matthew 11:7-11

7But as they went [away], Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed moved about by the wind?

8But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in delicate raiment? behold, those who wear delicate things are in the houses of kings.

9But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet:

10this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.

11Verily I say to you, that there is not arisen among [the] born of women a greater than John the baptist. But he who is a little one in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he.
