Luke 7:28-30

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁸ For I say to you: Amongst those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist. But he that is the lesser in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.

²⁹ And all the people hearing, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with John's baptism.

³⁰ But the Pharisees and the lawyers despised the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.
