Matthew 11:7-10
Contemporary English Version

People who dress like that live in the king's palace. 9 What did you really go out to see? Was he a prophet? He certainly was. I tell you that he was more than a prophet. 10 (A) In the Scriptures God says about him, “I am sending my messenger ahead to get things ready for you.”
