MATTHEW 3
1 In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea
2
and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”
3 This is he
who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah:
“A voice of one calling in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord,
make straight paths for him.’”
4 John’s clothes were made of camel’s hair, and he had a leather belt around
his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.
5 People went out to him from
Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region of the Jordan.
6 Confessing their
sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.
7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was
baptizing, he said to them: “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from
the coming wrath?
8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.
9 And do not
think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ I tell you
that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.
10 The ax is
already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good
fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
11 “I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is
more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize
you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and
he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and
burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.
14 But
John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you
come to me?”
15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill
all righteousness.” Then John consented.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment
heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and
alighting on him.
17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I
love; with him I am well pleased.”
