19 And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, |Who are you?| 20 And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, |I am not the Christ.| 21 And they asked him, |What then? Are you Elijah?| And he said, |I am not.| |Are you the Prophet?| And he answered, |No.| 22 They said therefore to him, |Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?| 23 He said, |I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Isaiah the prophet said.| John 1:19-23, New Heart English Bible.
