Mark 11:30 DBY

²⁸  and they say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things?

²⁹  And Jesus answering said to them, *I* also will ask you one thing, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:

³⁰  The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me.

³¹  And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why [then] have ye not believed him?

³²  but should we say, Of men -- they feared the people; for all held of John that he was truly a prophet.
