Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet whoever is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

What I’m about to tell you is true. No one more important than John the Baptist has ever been born. But the least important person in the kingdom of heaven is more important than he is.

Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

“ I tell you the truth, of all who have ever lived, none is greater than John the Baptist. Yet even the least person in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he is!

“ Truly I tell you, among those born of women no one greater than John the Baptist has appeared, but the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

予實語爾、婦女所生、未有大於如望者也。然天主國中之至小者、視彼猶大。

惟天主能堅定爾等信心、使爾等與我所傳之福音及耶穌基督之聖道中、能確立不搖。斯道也、即有世以來所蘊藏之玄妙、今則據先知之書、按天主之聖謨、而揭曉啟示、宣揚於天下萬民令其翕然歸於一信；

予在宗徒中、為後生小子、實不堪稱為宗徒；以予曾窘辱聖教會故。

夫我乃諸聖中之至微者、竟亦蒙此殊恩、得在異邦人中弘宣基督不可思議之厚澤、

人多就之、其言曰：『如望未曾行一靈蹟、

如望乃輝煌之明燈、爾等亦曾瞻仰其光、而極一時之樂矣。

吾惟以水洗爾、用啟悔悟；然有後我者、威力遠超我上、吾雖為之執履、亦非所宜稱；彼將洗爾於聖神與靈火之中。

是故人若違犯一至微之誡命、且以此教人者、天國中必小之。惟篤踐誡命、而又能以此教人者、在天國中乃稱為大。

然則爾如有世俗之事、應須解決者、即付諸會中之最低能者為爾裁判、亦應綽綽乎有餘裕也。

此言乃指信奉之者、將領受聖神；時聖神尚未降臨、以耶穌猶未榮昇故。

吾雖為之釋履帶、亦非所稱也。』

而謂其徒曰：『凡以予名義納此小兒者、即納予、亦即納遣予者。蓋爾中最小者、斯為大矣。』

蓋天主夙為吾人備有更微妙之事、而古人之成全、實有待乎吾人者焉。

如望揚聲為之作證曰：『予向所言：「有一後我而來、居我之上、原在我先」者、即斯人矣！』

彼之天爵隆高、芳醴濁醪、點滴不入、蓋自胎中已飽濡聖神矣。

彼當日益、我宜日損。

為我滌除。眾罪之痕。我已知過。眾惡紛呈。

吾輩過去亦在悖逆之列、縱情恣慾、為所欲為、原屬觸怒之子、與外邦人為一丘之貉。

是即歷來先知所潛心探索而預言者、爾等則親沾其澤矣。

顧其昭著、則有待乎我恩主耶穌基督之降生耳。今彼已將死亡置於死地、且藉福音之道、已將永生與不朽布之於世，昭然若揭矣。

斯道無他、即天主自始所蘊藏之玄妙、至今始顯示於諸聖、命其弘宣於萬邦者也。斯玄妙乃無窮景福之寶庫、而光榮希望之靈淵；即寓爾心中之基督是也。
