Matthew 11:1-6

Christian Standard Bible

John the Baptist Doubts

11 When Jesus had finished giving instructions to his twelve disciples, he moved on from there to teach and preach in their towns.^{(A) 2} Now when John heard in prison what the Christ was doing, he sent a message through his disciples^{(B) 3} and asked him, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?” ^(C)

⁴ Jesus replied to them, “Go and report to John what you hear and see: ⁵ The blind receive their sight, the lame walk, those with leprosy^[a] are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor are told the good news,^{(D) 6} and blessed is the one who isn’t offended by me.”^(E)
