Luke 3 - Interlinear Bible
John the Baptist Preaches
4
as it is
written in the
book of the
words of
Isaiah the
prophet, " THE
VOICE OF ONE
CRYING IN THE
WILDERNESS,
'MAKE READY THE
WAY OF THE
LORD,
MAKE HIS
PATHS STRAIGHT.
6
AND
ALL FLESH WILL
SEE THE
SALVATION OF
GOD.' "
7
So he began
saying to the
crowds who were
going out to be
baptized by him, " You
brood of
vipers,
who warned you to
flee from the
wrath to
come ?
9
"Indeed the
axe is
already laid at the
root of the
trees ;
so every tree that does not
bear good fruit is
cut down and
thrown into the
fire."
10
And the
crowds were
questioning him,
saying, "
Then what shall we
do ?"
11
And he would
answer and
say to them, "The man who
has two tunics is to
share with him who
has none ; and he who
has food is to
do likewise."
12
And some
tax collectors also came to be
baptized, and they
said to him,
"Teacher,
what shall we
do ?"
13
And he
said to them, "
Collect no more than what you have been
ordered to."
14
Some
soldiers were
questioning him,
saying, "And what about us,
what shall we
do ?" And he
said to them, "Do not
take money from
anyone by
force,
or accuse anyone
falsely, and be
content with your
wages."
15
Now while the
people were in a
state of
expectation and
all were
wondering in their
hearts about John, as to
whether he was the
Christ,
16
John answered and
said to them
all, "As for me, I
baptize you with
water ; but One is
coming who is
mightier than I, and I
am not
fit to
untie the
thong of His
sandals ; He will
baptize you with the
Holy Spirit and
fire.
17
"His
winnowing fork is in His
hand to
thoroughly clear His
threshing floor, and to
gather the
wheat into His
barn ; but He will
burn up the
chaff with
unquenchable fire."
20
Herod
also added this to them
all : he
locked John up in
prison.
Jesus Is Baptized
22
and the
Holy Spirit descended upon Him in
bodily form like a
dove, and a
voice came out of
heaven, " You are My
beloved Son, in You I
am well-pleased."
