Matthew 11:9-11

Good News Translation

⁹ Tell me, what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes indeed, but you saw much more than a prophet. ^10 (A)For John is the one of whom the scripture says: ‘God said, I will send my messenger ahead of you to open the way for you.’ ¹¹ I assure you that John the Baptist is greater than anyone who has ever lived. But the one who is least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than John.
