Luke 20:2-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 20
2
and they declared, saying to Him, 'Tell us by what authority You are doing these things, or who is the one who gave You this authority?'
3
But He replied to them, 'I will also ask you a question, and you tell Me:
4
Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?'
5
They discussed among themselves, saying, 'If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us to death, since they are convinced that John was a prophet.'
7
And
so
they answered that they did not know where
it came
from.
King James Version
Chapter 20
2
And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?
3
And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:
4
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
5
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
6
But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.
7
And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was.

Chapter 20
2
and said to him: "Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? Who is it who gave you this authority?"
3
He answered them, "I will also ask you a question. Tell me,
4
was the baptism of John from heaven or of human origin?"
5
They discussed it among themselves: "If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6
But if we say, ‘Of human origin,’ all the people will stone us, because they are convinced that John was a prophet."
7
So they answered that they did not know its origin.
New Living Translation
Chapter 20
2
They demanded, 'By what authority are you doing all these things? Who gave you the right?'
3
Let me ask you a question first,' he replied.
4
Did John’s authority to baptize come from heaven, or was it merely human?'
5
They talked it over among themselves. 'If we say it was from heaven, he will ask why we didn’t believe John.
6
But if we say it was merely human, the people will stone us because they are convinced John was a prophet.'
7
So they finally replied that they didn’t know.

and said to him, "Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is that gave you this authority."
3
He answered them, "I also will ask you a question. Now tell me,
4
was the baptism of John from heaven or from man?"
5
And they discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6
But if we say, ‘From man,’ all the people will stone us to death, for they are convinced that John was a prophet."
7
So they answered that they did not know where it came from.

2
"Tell us by what authority you are doing these things," they said. "Who gave you this authority?"
3
He replied, "I will also ask you a question. Tell me:
4
John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin?"
5
They discussed it among themselves and said, "If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6
But if we say, ‘Of human origin,’ all the people will stone us, because they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
7
So they answered, "We don’t know where it was from."
