⁶ Those who ·do not stumble in their faith [are not offended] because of me are blessed.”

⁷ As ·John’s followers [^Lthey] were leaving, Jesus began talking to the ·people [crowds] about John. Jesus said, “What did you go out into the ·desert [wilderness] to see? A reed ·blown by [shaken by; swaying in] the wind [^Ca metaphor for something weak or wavering]? ⁸ What did you go out to see? A man dressed in ·fine [expensive] clothes? No, those who wear ·fine [expensive; ^Lsoft] clothes ·live [are found] in kings’ ·palaces [houses].
