21. In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.
22. And he answered and said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good tidings preached to them.
23. And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.
24. And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?
25. But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
26. But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
27. This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.
28. I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there is none greater than John: yet he that is but little in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
