Luke 20:5

5 They discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, "From heaven,' he will say, "Why did you not believe him?'

Luke 20:5 In-Context

3 He answered them, "I will also ask you a question, and you tell me:
4 Did the baptism of John come from heaven, or was it of human origin?"
5 They discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, "From heaven,' he will say, "Why did you not believe him?'
6 But if we say, "Of human origin,' all the people will stone us; for they are convinced that John was a prophet."
7 So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
