Matthew 3:1
In
those
days
came
John
the
Baptist,
preaching
in
the
wilderness
of
Judaea,
°
2
And
saying,
Repent
ye:
for
the
kingdom
of
heaven
is at
hand.
3
For
this
is
he
that was
spoken
of
by
the
prophet
Esaias,
saying,
The
voice
of one
crying
in
the
wilderness,
Prepare
ye
the
way
of the
Lord,
make
his
paths
straight.
4
And
the
same
John
had
his
raiment
of
camel's
hair,
and
a
leathern
girdle
about
his
loins;
and
his
meat
was
locusts
and
wild
honey.
5
Then
went
out
to
him
Jerusalem,
and
all
Judaea,
and
all
the region round
about
Jordan,
6
And
were
baptized
of
him
in
Jordan,
confessing
their
sins.
7
But
when he
saw
many
of the
Pharisees
and
Sadducees
come
to
his
baptism,
he
said
unto
them,
O
generation
of
vipers,
who
hath
warned
you
to
flee
from
the
wrath
to
come?
8
Bring
forth
therefore
fruits
meet
for
repentance:
9
And
think
not
to
say
within
yourselves,
We
have
Abraham
to our
father:
for
I
say
unto
you,
that
God
is
able
of
these
stones
to raise
up
children
unto
Abraham.
10
And
now
also
the
ax
is
laid
unto
the
root
of the
trees:
therefore
every
tree
which
bringeth
not
forth
good
fruit
is hewn
down,
and
cast
into
the
fire.
11
I
indeed
baptize
you
with
water
unto
repentance:
but
he that
cometh
after
me
is
mightier
than
I,
whose
shoes
I
am
not
worthy
to
bear:
he
shall
baptize
you
with
the
Holy
Ghost,
and
with
fire:
12
Whose
fan
is
in
his
hand,
and
he will thoroughly
purge
his
floor,
and
gather
his
wheat
into
the
garner;
but
he will burn
up
the
chaff
with
unquenchable
fire.
13
Then
cometh
Jesus
from
Galilee
to
Jordan
unto
John,
to be
baptized
of
him.
14
But
John
forbad
him,
saying,
I
have
need
to be
baptized
of
thee,
and
comest
thou
to
me?
15
And
Jesus
answering
said
unto
him,
Suffer
it to be so
now:
for
thus
it
becometh
°
us
to
fulfil
all
righteousness.
Then
he
suffered
him.
16
And
Jesus,
when he was
baptized,
went
up
straightway
out
of
the
water:
and,
lo,
the
heavens
were
opened
unto
him,
and
he
saw
the
Spirit
of
God
descending
like
a
dove,
and
lighting
upon
him:
17
And
lo
a
voice
from
heaven,
saying,
This
is
my
beloved
Son,
in
whom
I am well
pleased.
