3 Jesus answered them, |I, too, have a question for you. Tell me,

4 did John's right to baptize come from heaven or from humans?|

5 They talked about this among themselves. They said, |If we say, 'from heaven,' he will ask, 'Why didn't you believe him?'

6 But if we say, 'from humans,' everyone will stone us to death. They're convinced that John was a prophet.|

7 So they answered that they didn't know who gave John the right to baptize.

8 Jesus told them, |Then I won't tell you why I have the right to do these things.|
