And his disciples asked him, saying: Why then do the scribes say that Elias must come first?
And if you will receive it, he is Elias that is to come.
And they asked him, and said to him: Why then dost thou baptize, if thou be not Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet?
And they asked him: What then? Art thou Elias? And he said: I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered: No.
Who answering, said to them: Elias, when he shall come first, shall restore all things; and as it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things and be despised.
But they said: Some John the Baptist, and other some Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
But he answering, said to them: Elias indeed shall come, and restore all things.
