25The baptism of John, where did it come from? from heaven or from men? And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not have faith in him?
26But if we say, From men; we are in fear of the people, because all take John to be a prophet.
27And they made answer and said, We have no idea. Then he said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.
28But how does it seem to you? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go and do work today in the vine-garden.
29And he said in answer, I will not: but later, changing his decision, he went.
30And he came to the second and said the same. And he made answer and said, I go, sir: and went not.
31Which of the two did his father's pleasure? They say, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that tax-farmers and loose women are going into the kingdom of God before you.
