11 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

27And they came again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to him, The Authority of Jesus Questioned Mk.11.27-33 (Jerusalem) | Mt.21.23-27 | Lk.20.1-8Καὶ ἐρχονται πάλιν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα. καὶ ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ περιπατοῦντος αὐτοῦ ἐρχονται πρὸς αὐτὸν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι
28and they said to him, "By what authority are you doing these things, or who gave you this authority to do them?"  καὶ ἐλεγον αὐτῷ, Ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιεῖς; ἢ τίς σοι ἐδωκεν τὴν ἐξουσίαν ταύτην ἵνα ταῦτα ποιῇς;
29Jesus said to them, "I will ask you a question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.  ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἐπερωτήσω ὑμᾶς ἑνα λόγον, καὶ ἀποκρίθητέ μοι, καὶ ἐρῶ ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ·
30Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men? Answer me."  τὸ βάπτισμα τὸ Ἰωάννου ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἦν ἢ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων; ἀποκρίθητέ μοι.
31And they argued with one another, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'  καὶ διελογίζοντο πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς λέγοντες, Ἐὰν εἰπωμεν, Ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἐρεῖ, Διὰ τί οὖν οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ;
32But shall we say, 'From men?'" - they were afraid of the people, for all held that John was a real prophet.  ἀλλὰ εἰπωμεν, Ἐξ ἀνθρώπων; - ἐφοβοῦντο τὸν ὀχλον, ἀπαντες γὰρ εἶχον τὸν Ἰωάννην ὀντως ὅτι προφήτης ἦν.
33So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."  καὶ ἀποκριθέντες τῷ Ἰησοῦ λέγουσιν, Οὐκ οἰδαμεν. καὶ ὁ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς, Οὐδὲ ἐγὼ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.
