John 1:19-25
19ThisG3778 is 1the testimonyG3141 of JohnG2491, whenG3753 2the JewsG2453 sentG649 priestsG2409 and LevitesG3019 to him 3from JerusalemG2414 to askG2065 him, “WhoG5101 are you?” 20And he confessedG3670 and did not denyG720; and this is what he confessedG3670: “4I amG1510 not the 5ChristG5547.” 21And so they askedG2065 him, “WhatG5101 thenG3767? Are you 6ElijahG2243?” And he saidG3004, “I amG1510 not.” “Are you 7the ProphetG4396?” And he answeredG611, “NoG3756.” 22ThenG3767 they saidG3004 to him, “WhoG5101 are you? Tell us, soG2443 thatG2443 we may giveG1325 an answerG612 to thoseG3588 who sentG3992 us. WhatG5101 do you sayG3004 aboutG4012 yourselfG4572?” 23He saidG5346, “I am 8the voiceG5456 of one callingG994 9outG994 in the wildernessG2048, ‘MakeG2116 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962 straightG2116,’ as IsaiahG2268 the prophetG4396 saidG3004.”
24And the messengers had beenG1510 sentG649 from the PhariseesG5330. 25They askedG2065 him, and saidG3004 to him, “WhyG5101 thenG3767 are you baptizingG907, ifG1487 you are not the 10ChristG5547, norG3761 ElijahG2243, norG3761 11the ProphetG4396?”
