Verses 1–10
1 And it came to pass when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.
2 Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,
3 And said to him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?
4 Jesus answered and said to them, Go and show John again those things which ye hear and see:
5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.
6 And blessed is [he] to whom I shall not be the cause of his falling into sin.
7 And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken with the wind?
8 But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear soft [clothing] are in kings' houses.
9 But what went ye out to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
10 For this is [he] concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
