MATTHEW
3/3
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.

3/4
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.

3/5
Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,

3/6
And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

3/7
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?

3/8
Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:3/9
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.

3/10
And now also the axe 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.

3/11
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:

3/12
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

3/13
Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

3/14
But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?

3/15
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.

3/16
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:

3/17
And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

MARK
1/1
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;

1/2
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

1/3
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

1/4
John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

1/5
And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.

1/6
And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;

1/7
And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

1/8
I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.

1/9
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

1/10
And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

1/11
And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

LUKE
3/21
Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

3/22
And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

JOHN
1/29
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

1/30
This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me. 1/31
And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

1/32
And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

1/33
And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

1/34
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

1/35
Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;

1/36
And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

1/37
And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
