27 Jesus and his disciples returned to Jerusalem. And as he was walking through the temple, the chief priests, the nation’s leaders, and the teachers of the Law of Moses came over to him. 28 They asked, "What right do you have to do these things? Who gave you this authority?"
29 Jesus answered, "I have just one question to ask you. If you answer it, I will tell you where I got the right to do these things. 30 Who gave John the right to baptize? Was it God in heaven or merely some human being?"
31 They thought it over and said to each other, "We can’t say that God gave John this right. Jesus will ask us why we didn’t believe John. 32 On the other hand, these people think that John was a prophet. So we can’t say it was merely some human who gave John the right to baptize."
They were afraid of the crowd 33 and told Jesus, "We don’t know."
Jesus replied, "Then I won’t tell you who gave me the right to do what I do."
