Matthew 3:1-12
1 In those days, John the Baptist came
proclaiming in the desert of Judaea, 2 saying, ‘Repent, for the
kingdom of Heaven has drawn near.’ 3 This was the man
spoken of by the prophet Isaiah when he said:
A voice of one crying in the desert,
‘Prepare a way for the Lord,
make his paths straight.’
4 John himself wore a garment of camel-hair with a leather belt
round his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then
Jerusalem and all Judaea and the whole region around the Jordan
district kept going out to him, 6 and they were baptised by him in
the River Jordan as they confessed their sins. 7 But seeing many of
the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism he said to them,
‘Brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrathd to come?
8 Produce fruit worthy of repentance, 9 and do not be
satisfied with saying to yourselves, “We have Abraham as our father,”
4 for I tell you, God can raise children for Abraham from these stones.
10 Even now the axe is being laid to the root of the trees, so any tree
failing to produce good fruit is cut down and thrown on the fire. 11 I
baptise you with water for repentance, but the one who comes after
me is more powerful than I, and I am not fit to carry his sandals; he
will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His winnowing-fan
is in his hand; he will clear his threshing-floor and gather his wheat
into his barn; but the chaff he will burn in a fire that never goes out.’
