Jesus aber antwortete und sprach zu ihnen: Ich will euch auch ein Wort fragen; so ihr mir das sagt, will ich euch auch sagen aus was für Macht ich das tue:
Y respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Yo también os preguntaré una palabra, la cual si me dijereis, también yo os diré con qué autoridad hago esto.
Jesús les respondió: «Yo también les haré una pregunta. Si me la responden, también yo les diré con qué autoridad hago estas cosas.
Jésus leur répondit: Je vous adresserai aussi une question; et, si vous m'y répondez, je vous dirai par quelle autorité je fais ces choses.
E Gesù, rispondendo, disse loro: Ancora io vi domanderò una cosa, la qual se voi mi dite io altresì vi dirò di quale autorità fo queste cose.
E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhes: Eu também vos perguntarei uma coisa; se ma disserdes, também eu vos direi com que autoridade faço isto.
耶穌回答他們說:「我也要問你們一句話,你們若告訴我,我就告訴你們我仗著甚麼權柄做這些事。
