John 1:21-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ And they asked him: What then? Art thou Elias? And he said: I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered: No.

²² They said therefore unto him: Who art thou, that we may give an answer to them that sent us? What sayest thou of thyself?

²³ He said: I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaias.
