Matthew 11:12

9 But why did you go out? to see a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

10 This is he of whom it has been said, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way before you.

11 Truly I say to you, Among the sons of women there has not been a greater than John the Baptist: but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

12 And from the days of John the Baptist till now, the kingdom of heaven is forcing its way in, and men of force take it.

13 For all the prophets and the law were in force till John.

14 And if you are able to see it, this is Elijah who was to come.

15 He who has ears, let him give ear.
