Matthew 3:4-11

4And John himself had his garment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins, and his nourishment was locusts and wild honey.

5Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the country round the Jordan,

6and were baptised by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

7But seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, Offspring of vipers, who has forewarned you to flee from the coming wrath?

8Produce therefore fruit worthy of repentance.

9And do not think to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for [our] father; for I say unto you, that 1God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.

10And already the axe is applied to the root of the trees; every tree therefore not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

11I indeed baptise you with water to repentance, but he that comes after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not fit to bear; he shall baptise you with [the] Holy Spirit and fire;
