且有更確之預言、爾宜顧之、如燈燭暗、迨日始旦、明星照爾心矣、

其人歸、耶穌舉約翰語眾曰、爾曩出野、何觀耶、風動之葦乎、抑爾出何觀耶、衣毳衣者乎、衣毳衣者、在王宮也、然則爾出何為也、觀先知乎、是也、我語汝、且卓越於先知也、

爾當時之禧慶安在、我為爾證、若能為之、即抉目予我、亦所願也、然則我以真理告爾、反成仇乎、

惟汝小子、將稱為至上者之先知、因爾行於主前、以備其路、使民知拯救、在罪之赦也、

若云自人、則我畏眾、蓋皆以約翰為先知也、

由是其徒多退、不復從之、

時耶路撒冷猶太及約但四方、咸出就之、在約但河受其洗、而承己罪、約翰見法利賽撒都該人多就其洗、謂之曰、蝮類乎、誰示爾避將來之怒乎、

播於磽地者、乃人聽道、即喜受之、惟內無根、則亦暫耳、及為道而遇患難窘逐、即厭棄之、

彼來作證、即為光作證、俾眾由之而信、斯人非光、特為光作證耳、

因希律敬畏約翰、知其義且聖、而庇之、聞其言、心多猶豫、而喜聽之、

蓋彼將於主前為大、清酒醇醪皆不飲、自母胎而聖神充之、將使以色列多人、轉而歸主、即其上帝也、彼將以以利亞之性與能、行於主前、使為父者之心、轉向其子、逆者從義者之智、為主備適宜之民、

彼詣爾所、如民來集、坐於爾前、若為我民、聽爾言而不行之、其口多顯仁愛、心則逐利、

我語汝、婦之所生、未有大於約翰者、然在上帝國之微者、猶大於彼也、

我誠語汝、婦之所生、未有大於施洗約翰者、然在天國之微者、猶大於彼也、
