Matthew 21:25-28 American Standard Version (ASV)

25. The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why then did ye not believe him?

26. But if we shall say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet.

27. And they answered Jesus, and said, We know not. He also said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

28. But what think ye? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to-day in the vineyard.
