John 1:23
Douay-Rheims
He said: I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaias.
John Chrysostom
(Hom. xvi. [xv.] 2) You see them here pressing him still more strongly with their questions, while he on the other hand quietly puts down their suspicions, where they are untrue, and establishes the truth in their place: saying, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness.
