In context
20 Bila kusitasita na hakukana, bali alijibu, “Mimi sio Kristo.”
21 Hivyo wakamuuliza, “kwa hiyo wewe ni nani sasa?” Wewe ni Eliya? Akasema, “Mimi siye.” Wakasema, Wewe ni nabii? Akajibu,” Hapana.”
22 Kisha wakamwambia, “Wewe ni nani, ili kwamba tuwape jibu waliotutuma”? Wajishuhudiaje wewe mwenyewe?”
23 Akasema, “Mimi ni sauti yake aliaye nyikani: 'Inyosheni njia ya Bwana,' kama nabii Isaya alivyosema.”

25 “Kwa nini unabatiza basi kama wewe sio Kristo wala Eliya wala nabii?”
26 Yohana aliwajibu akisema, “Ninabatiza kwa maji. Hata hivyo, miongoni mwenu anasimama mtu msiyemtambua.
