Luke 3:14-17

14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence[a] to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
15 And as the people were in expectation,[b] and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose* shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
