Luke 20:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?

⁵ But they thought within themselves, saying: If we shall say, From heaven: he will say: Why then did you not believe him?

⁶ But if we say, Of men, the whole people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
