42:007:017 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and
           throughout all the region round about.

42:007:018 And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.

42:007:019 And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to
           Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for
           another?

42:007:020 When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath
           sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or
           look we for another?

42:007:021 And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and
           plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he
           gave sight.

42:007:022 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell
           John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind
           see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear,
           the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.

42:007:023 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

42:007:024 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to
           speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into
           the wilderness for to see?  A reed shaken with the wind?

42:007:025 But what went ye out for to see?  A man clothed in soft
           raiment?  Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and
           live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

42:007:026 But what went ye out for to see?  A prophet?  Yea, I say unto
           you, and much more than a prophet.

42:007:027 This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger
           before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

42:007:028 For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there
           is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist:  but he that is
           least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

42:007:029 And all the people that heard him, and the publicans,
           justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.

42:007:030 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God
           against themselves, being not baptized of him.

42:007:031 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of
           this generation? and to what are they like?

42:007:032 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and
           calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you,
           and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have
           not wept.

42:007:033 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking
           wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.

42:007:034 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold
           a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and
           sinners!
