Matthew 11:7-15 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind? But what went did you go out for to see? A man clothed in soft clothes? Look, those who wear soft clothing are in kings' palaces. But what did you go out there to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet. For this is he of whom it is written, Look, I send my messenger in front of your face, who will prepare the way in front of you. Truly I say to you, Among those who are born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist: but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than him. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven allows violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied up until John. And if you will receive it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
