Matthew 21:20-29

20SeeingG3708 this, the disciplesG3101 wereG2296 amazedG2296 and 1askedG3004, “HowG4459 did the figG4808 treeG4808 witherG3583 all at onceG3916?” 21And JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, “TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 2ifG1437 you haveG2192 faithG4102 and do not doubtG1252, you will not onlyG3440 doG4160 whatG3588 was done to the figG4808 treeG4808, but evenG2579 ifG2579 you sayG3004 to thisG3778 mountainG3735, ‘Be takenG142 upG142 and castG906 into the seaG2281,’ it will happenG1096. 22And 3whateverG3745G302 you askG154 in prayerG4335, believingG4100, you will receiveG2983 it allG3956.”

234When He enteredG2064 the templeG2413 area, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 of the peopleG2992 cameG4334 to Him 5while He was teachingG1321, and saidG3004, “By whatG4169 authorityG1849 are You doingG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778, and whoG5101 gaveG1325 You thisG3778 authorityG1849?” 24But JesusG2424 respondedG611 and saidG3004 to them, “I will alsoG2532 askG2065 you oneG1520 6questionG3056, 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 consideringG1260 the implications 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 7peopleG3793; for they allG3956 regardG2192 JohnG2491 as 8a prophetG4396.” 27And answeringG611 JesusG2424, they saidG3004, “We do not knowG3609.” He alsoG2532 saidG5346 to them, “NeitherG3761 am I tellingG3004 you by whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778.

28“But whatG5101 do you thinkG1380? A manG444 hadG2192 twoG1417 9sonsG5043, and he cameG4334 to the firstG4413 and saidG3004, ‘10SonG5043, goG5217 workG2038 todayG4594 in the 11vineyardG290.’ 29But he repliedG611G3004, ‘I do not wantG2309 to.’ YetG1161 afterwardG5305 he regrettedG3338 it and wentG565.
