  Matthew   chapter 3

   1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in
  the wilderness of Judaea,
   2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven
  is at hand.
   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.
   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.
   5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea,
  and all the region round about Jordan,
   6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing
  their sins.
   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?
   8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:
   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.
  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.
  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:
  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.
  13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto
  John, to be baptized of him.
  14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be
  baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
  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.
  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:
  17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my
  beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. (KJV)
