- One day as he was teaching the people in the temple courts and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, together with the elders, came up to him.
- "Tell us by what authority you are doing these things," they said. "Who gave you this authority?"
- He replied, "I will also ask you a question. Tell me,
- John's baptism--was it from heaven, or from men?"
- They discussed it among themselves and said, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will ask, 'Why didn't you believe him?'

- 有一天耶穌在殿裡教訓百姓、講福音的時候、祭司長和文士並長老上前來、
- 問他說、你告訴我們、你仗著甚麼權柄作這些事、給你這權柄的是誰呢。
- 耶穌回答說、我也要問你們一句話.你們且告訴我.
- 約翰的洗禮、是從天上來的、是從人間來的呢。
- 他們彼此商議說、我們若說從天上來、他必說你們為甚麼不信他呢.
