3:11 I indeed baptize you in water unto repentance1: but he that cometh after me2 is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you3 in the Holy Spirit and [in] fire4:
3:12 whose fan1 is in his hand2, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor3; and he will gather his wheat into the garner4, but the chaff5 he will burn up6 with unquenchable fire7.
3:13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him2.
3:14 But John would have hindered him1, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee2, and comest thou to me3?
3:15 But Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer [it] now1: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness3. Then he suffereth him5.
3:16 And Jesus when he was baptized1, went up straightway from the water2: and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him;
3:17 and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
