New American Standard Bible
24And the messengers had been sent from the Pharisees.
25They asked him, and said to him, 'Why then are you baptizing, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?'
26John answered them, saying, 'I baptize in water, but among you stands One whom you do not know.
27It is He who comes after me, of whom I am not worthy even to untie the strap of His sandal.'
King James Version
Chapter 1
23He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias. 24And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. 25And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? 26John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; 27He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.Christian Standard Bible
