John 1:20-22

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁰ He confessed (admitted the truth) and did not try to conceal it, but acknowledged, I am not the Christ!

²¹ They asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not! Are you the Prophet? And he answered, No!^(A)

²² Then they said to him, Who are you? Tell us, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?
