24 When John's messengers had gone, Jesus began to ask the crowds about John. |What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? 25 Really, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fancy clothes? Look! Those who wear fine clothes and live in luxury are in royal palaces. 26 Really, what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and even more than a prophet! 27 This is the man about whom it is written, 'See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.' 28 I tell you, no one has ever been born who is greater than John. Yet even the least important person in the kingdom of God is greater than he.| Luke 7:24-28, Intl. Standard Version. Copyright © 1995-2014 by ISV Foundation.
