    Matthew 3
    •   And in those days cometh John the Baptist, proclaiming in the wilderness of Judea,
    •   and saying, `Reform, for come nigh hath the reign of the heavens,'
    •   for this is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying, `A voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye His paths.'
    •   And this John had his clothing of camel's hair, and a girdle of skin round his loins, and his nourishment was locusts and honey of the field.
    •   Then were going forth unto him Jerusalem, and all Judea, and all the region round about the Jordan,
    •   and they were baptized in the Jordan by him, confessing their sins.
    •   And having seen many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming about his baptism, he said to them, `Brood of vipers! who did shew you to flee from the coming wrath?
    •   bear, therefore, fruits worthy of the reformation,
    •   and do not think to say in yourselves, A father we have--Abraham, for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise children to Abraham,
    • 10   and now also, the axe unto the root of the trees is laid, every tree therefore not bearing good fruit is hewn down, and to fire is cast.
    • 11   `I indeed do baptize you with water to reformation, but he who after me is coming is mightier than I, of whom I am not worthy to bear the sandals, he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,
    • 12   whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather his wheat to the storehouse, but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.'
    • 13   Then cometh Jesus from Galilee upon the Jordan, unto John to be baptized by him,
    • 14   but John was forbidding him, saying, `I have need by thee to be baptized--and thou dost come unto me!'
    • 15   But Jesus answering said to him, `Suffer now, for thus it is becoming to us to fulfil all righteousness,' then he doth suffer him.
    • 16   And having been baptized, Jesus went up immediately from the water, and lo, opened to him were the heavens, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him,
    • 17   and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, `This is My Son--the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
