11On oneG1520 of the daysG2250 while 2He was teachingG1321 the peopleG2992 in the templeG2413 and 3preachingG2097 the gospelG2097, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the scribesG1122 with the eldersG4245 4confrontedG2186 Him, 2and they spokeG3004, sayingG3004 to Him, “TellG3004 us by whatG4169 authorityG1849 You are doingG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778, orG2228 whoG5101 is the one who gaveG1325 You thisG3778 authorityG1849?” 3Jesus answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, “I will alsoG2532 askG2065 you a 5questionG3056, and you tellG3004 Me: 4Was the baptismG908 of JohnG2491 from heavenG3772 orG2228 from menG444?” 5They reasonedG4817 amongG4314 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004, “IfG1437 we sayG3004, ‘From heavenG3772,’ He will sayG3004, ‘WhyG1223G5101 did you not believeG4100 him?’ 6But ifG1437 we sayG3004, ‘From menG444,’ allG537 the peopleG2992 will stoneG2642 us to deathG2642, for they are convincedG3982 that JohnG2491 was a 6prophetG4396.” 7SoG2532 they answeredG611 that they did not knowG3609 whereG4159 it came from. 8And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “NorG3761 7will I tellG3004 you by whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778.”
