John 1:21-23

Tree of Life Version

²¹ “What then? Are you Elijah?” they asked him.

“I am not,” said John.

“Are you the Prophet?”

“No,” he answered.

²² So they said to him, “Who are you? Give us an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”

²³ He said, “I am ‘the voice of one crying in the wilderness, “Make straight the way of Adonai,”’^[a] as the prophet Isaiah said.”
