⁴ Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: ^5 (A)The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and ^(B)the poor have the gospel preached to them. ⁶ And blessed is he who is not ^(C)offended because of Me.”

^12 (A)And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. ^13 (B)For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. ¹⁴ And if you are willing to receive it, he is ^(C)Elijah who is to come. ^15 (D)He who has ears to hear, let him hear!
