Matthew 21:24

Jesus answered them , I also will ask you one question , and if you tell me the answer , then I also will tell you by what authority I do these things .

Jesus replied, “I will also ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.

And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
