Mark 1:4-8

4John appeared, immersing in the wilderness, proclaiming an immersion involving repentance for the removal of sins.

5All the Judean countryside was going out to him, and all the Jerusalemites. As they confessed their sins, they were being immersed by him in the Jordan River.

6John wore clothes made from camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.

7“After me comes One who is mightier than I am,” he proclaimed. “I’m not worthy to stoop down and untie the strap of His sandals!

8I immersed you with water, but He will immerse you in the Ruach ha-Kodesh.”
