1
And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he passed from thence, to teach and to preach in their cities.
2
Now when John had heard in prison the works of Christ: sending two of his disciples he said to him:
3
Art thou he that art to come, or look we for another?
4
And Jesus making answer said to them: Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen.
5
The blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead rise again, the poor have the gospel preached to them.
6
And blessed is he that shall not be scandalized in me.
7
And when they went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: What went you out into the desert to see? a reed shaken with the wind?
8
But what went you out to see? a man clothed in soft garments? Behold they that are clothed in soft garments, are in the houses of kings.
9
But what went you out to see? A prophet? Yea I tell you, and more than a prophet.
