Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:3 - And he answering said to them, *I* also will ask you one thing, and tell me:
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:4 - The baptism of John, was it of heaven or of men?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:5 - And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why have ye not believed him?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:6 - but if we should say, Of men, the whole people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:7 - And they answered, they did not know whence.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:37 - But that the dead rise, even Moses shewed in the section of the bush, when he called the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob;

DBY

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
