Matthew 3:10-12

10The 1axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore 2every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

11“As for me, 3I baptize you 4with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; 5He will baptize you 6with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12His 7winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will 8gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the 9chaff with 10unquenchable fire.”
