Alama 11:27-33

27 They came to Jerusalem again, and as Jesus was walking in the Temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to him,

28 Suka ce masa, ‘What authority have you for acting like this? Or who gave you authority to act like this?’

29 Yesu ya ce musu, ‘And I will ask you a question, just one; answer me and I will tell you my authority for acting like this.

30 John’s baptism, what was its origin, heavenly or human? Answer me that.’

31 And they argued this way among themselves, ‘If we say heavenly, zai ce, “Then why did you refuse to believe him?”

32 But dare we say human?’ — they had the people to fear, for everyone held that John had been a real prophet.

33 So their reply to Jesus was, ‘We do not know.’ Sai Yesu ya ce musu, ‘Nor will I tell you my authority for acting like this.’
