6And blessed is he, whoseouer shal not be offended in me. 7¶ And as they departed, Iesus began to say vnto the multitudes concerning Iohn, what went ye out into the wildernesse to see? a reede shaken with the winde? 8But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that weare soft cloathing, are in kings houses. 9But what went ye out for to see? A Prophet? yea, I say vnto you, and more then a Prophet. 10For this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
