Luke 20:1-8

1And it cameG1096 to passG1096 on oneG1520 of the daysG2250, as he was teachingG1321 the peopleG2992 in the temple, and announcing the glad tidings, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the scribesG1122 with the eldersG4245 cameG1096 up,

2and spokeG3004 to him sayingG3004, TellG3004 us by what authorityG1849 thou doest these thingsG3778, or who isG1510 it who has givenG1325 thee this authorityG1849?

3And he answeringG611 saidG3004 to them, I alsoG2532 will askG2065 you [one] thing, and tellG3004 me:

4The baptismG908 of JohnG2491, wasG1510 it of heavenG3772 or of menG444?

5And they reasoned among themselves, sayingG3004, If we should sayG3004, Of heavenG3772, he will sayG3004, WhyG5101 have ye not believedG4100 him?

6but if we should sayG3004, Of menG444, the whole peopleG2992 will stone us, for they areG1510 persuadedG3982 that JohnG2491 wasG1510 a prophetG4396.

7And they answeredG611, they did not know whence.

8And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, Neither do I tellG3004 you by what authorityG1849 I do these thingsG3778.
