24 And Jesus, having answered, said to them, I will also ask you one word, which if ye tell me, I also will tell you by what authority I do these. 25 The baptism of John, whence was it of heaven or of men And they reasoned by themselves, saying, If we say, of heaven; he will say to us, Why, then, believed ye him not? 26 But if we say, of men; we fear the crowd; for all hold John as a prophet. 27 And having answered Jesus, they said, We know not. And he said to them, Neither do I say to you, by what authority I do these. Matthew 21:24-27, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
