Luke 3:15

And the people are looking forward, and all are reasoning in their hearts concerning John, whether or not he may be the Christ;

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, 'Who art thou?'

ye yourselves do testify to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but, that I am having been sent before him;

the Jews, therefore, came round about him, and said to him, 'Till when our soul dost thou hold in suspense? if thou art the Christ, tell us freely.'

And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

the Jews, therefore, came round about him, and said to him, 'Till when our soul dost thou hold in suspense? if thou art the Christ, tell us freely.'

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, 'Who art thou?'

ye yourselves do testify to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but, that I am having been sent before him;

and he confessed and did not deny, and confessed -- 'I am not the Christ.'
