John 1:21-23

Young's Literal Translation

²¹ And they questioned him, `What then? Elijah art thou?' and he saith, `I am not.' -- `The prophet art thou?' and he answered, `No.'

²² They said then to him, `Who art thou, that we may give an answer to those sending us? what dost thou say concerning thyself?'

²³ He said, `I [am] a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet.'
