Matthew 11:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 For this is he of whom it is written, (A)Behold, I send my messenger before thy face which shall prepare thy way before thee.
11 Verily I say unto you, Among them which are begotten of women, arose there not a greater than John Baptist, notwithstanding, he that is the least in the [a]kingdom of heaven, is greater than he.
12 And from (B)the time of John Baptist hitherto, the kingdom of God suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
