(11)And it came to pass the next day, that he went into a city called Nain; and a considerable number of his disciples went with him, and a vast multitude. (12)And as he drew near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was carrying out, an only son to his mother, and she a widow; and a great concourse of the city was with her. (13)And when Jesus saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said unto her, Weep not. (14)And approaching, he touched the bier: and the bearers stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Arise. (15)And the dead man sat up, and began to speak: and he delivered him to his mother. (16)And fear fell on all, and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us, and that God hath looked down with mercy on his people. (17)And this account respecting him went abroad through all Judea, and all the region adjacent. (18)And his disciples informed John of all these things. (19)And John calling two certain persons of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or are we to expect another? (20)Then the men came to him, saying, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or are we to expect another? (21)And in that very hour he cured many of diseases and acute complaints, and evil spirits; and to many blind persons he gave sight. (22)And Jesus addressing them, said, Go, tell John what things ye have seen and heard: that the blind recover sight, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached unto them. (23)And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended at me. (24)Now when John's messengers were departed, he began to speak to the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? (25)But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in delicate garments? Behold, they who indulge in soft raiment, and delicate food, are in king's palaces. (26)But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. (27)For this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee. (28)For I tell you, of those born from woman, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of heaven, is greater than he. (29)And all the people when they heard it, and the publicans, glorified God, being baptised with the baptism of John. (30)But the Pharisees and teachers of the law rejected the counsel of God towards themselves, not being baptised by him.
