Matthew 21:23-27
231When He enteredG2064 the templeG2413, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 of the peopleG2992 cameG4334 to Him 2while He was teachingG1321, and saidG3004, “By whatG4169 authorityG1849 are You doingG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778, and whoG5101 gaveG1325 You thisG3778 authorityG1849?” 24JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “I will alsoG2532 askG2065 you oneG1520 3thingG3056, whichG3739 ifG1437 you tellG3004 Me, I will alsoG2532 tellG3004 you by whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778. 25The baptismG908 of JohnG2491 was from whatG4159 source, from heavenG3772 orG2228 from menG444?” And they began reasoningG1260 amongG1722 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004, “IfG1437 we sayG3004, ‘From heavenG3772,’ He will sayG3004 to us, ‘ThenG3767 whyG1223G5101 did you not believeG4100 him?’ 26But ifG1437 we sayG3004, ‘From menG444,’ we fearG5399 the 4peopleG3793; for they allG3956 regardG2192 JohnG2491 as 5a prophetG4396.” 27And answeringG611 JesusG2424, they saidG3004, “We do not knowG3609.” He alsoG2532 saidG5346 to them, “NeitherG3761 will I tellG3004 you by whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778.
