John 1:22-28

22ThenG3767 said theyG3004 unto himG846, WhoG5101 art thouG1510? thatG2443 we may giveG1325 an answerG612 to themG3588 that sentG3992 usG1473. WhatG5101 sayest thouG3004 ofG4012 thyselfG4572?

23He saidG5346, IG1473 am the voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Make straightG2116 the wayG3588G3598 of the LordG2962, asG2531 saidG3004 the prophetG3588G4396 IsaiahG2268.

24AndG2532 theyG3588 which were sentG649 wereG1510 ofG1537 the PhariseesG3588G5330.

25AndG2532 they askedG2065 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, WhyG5101 baptizest thouG907 thenG3767, ifG1487 thouG4771 beG1510 notG3756 that ChristG3588G5547, norG3777 ElijahG2243, neitherG3777 that prophetG3588G4396?

26JohnG3588G2491 answeredG611 themG846, sayingG3004, IG1473 baptizeG907 withG1722 waterG5204: butG1161 there standeth oneG2476 amongG3319 youG4771, whomG3739 yeG4771 knowG1492 notG3756;

27HeG846 it isG1510, whoG3739 comingG2064 afterG3694 meG1473 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG1473, whoseG3739 shoe’sG3588G5266 latchetG3588G2438 IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 to unlooseG3089.

28These thingsG3778 were doneG1096 inG1722 BethabaraG962 beyondG4008 JordanG3588G2446, whereG3699 JohnG2491 wasG1510 baptizingG907.
