MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ 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 shaken with the wind? ⁸ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, they who wear soft clothing are in kings' houses. ⁹ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and one more excellent than a prophet.
