1. And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and preach in their cities.
2. Now when John heard in the prison the works of the Christ, he sent by his disciples,
3. and said unto him, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
4. And Jesus answered and said unto them, Go your way and tell John the things which ye do hear and see:
5. the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good tidings preached to them.
6. And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.
7. And as these went their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?
