John 1:25 in Context — John 1
23 Moi, dit-il, je suis la voix de celui qui crie dans le désert: Aplanissez le chemin du Seigneur, comme a dit Ésaïe, le prophète.
24 Ceux qui avaient été envoyés étaient des pharisiens.
25 Ils lui firent encore cette question: Pourquoi donc baptises-tu, si tu n’es pas le Christ, ni Élie, ni le prophète?
26 Jean leur répondit: Moi, je baptise d’eau, mais au milieu de vous il y a quelqu’un que vous ne connaissez pas, qui vient après moi;
27 je ne suis pas digne de délier la courroie de ses souliers.
