John 1:24-26

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁴ And they that were sent, were of the Pharisees.

²⁵ And they asked him, and said to him: Why then dost thou baptize, if thou be not Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet?

²⁶ John answered them, saying: I baptize with water; but there hath stood one in the midst of you, whom you know not.
