Matthew 3:8-17
8Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 worthyG514 of repentanceG3341:1 9AndG2532 thinkG1380 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 for our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 to youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 to AbrahamG11. 10AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 toG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: thereforeG3767 everyG3956 treeG1186 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442. 11IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 inG1722 waterG5204 toG1519 repentanceG3341: butG1161 he that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 isG2076 mightier thanG2478 IG3450, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to bearG941: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 inG1722 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, andG2532 in fireG4442: 12WhoseG3739 fanG4425 is inG1722 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 he will thoroughly cleanseG1245 hisG846 floorG257, andG2532 gatherG4863 hisG846 wheatG4621 intoG1519 the barnG596; butG1161 he will burnG2618 the chaffG892 with unquenchableG762 fireG4442.
13ThenG5119 comethG3854 JesusG2424 fromG575 GalileeG1056 toG1909 JordanG2446 toG4314 JohnG2491, to be baptizedG907 byG5259 himG846. 14ButG1161 JohnG2491 forbadG1254 him, sayingG3004, IG1473 haveG2192 needG5532 to be baptizedG907 byG5259 theeG4675, andG2532 comestG2064 thouG4771 toG4314 meG3165? 15AndG1161 JesusG2424 answeringG611 saidG2036 toG4314 himG846, PermitG863 it to be so nowG737: forG1063 thusG3779 it isG2076 befittingG4241 for usG2254 to fulfilG4137 allG3956 righteousnessG1343. ThenG5119 he allowedG863 himG846. 16AndG2532 JesusG2424, when he was baptizedG907, went upG305 immediatelyG2117 out ofG575 the waterG5204: andG2532, loG2400, the heavensG3772 were openedG455 to himG846, andG2532 he sawG1492 the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 descendingG2597 likeG5616 a doveG4058, andG2532 lightingG2064 uponG1909 himG846: 17AndG2532 loG2400 a voiceG5456 fromG1537 heavenG3772, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 isG2076 myG3450 belovedG27 SonG5207, inG1722 whomG3739 I am well pleasedG2106.
