001:006 As for John, his garment was of camel's hair, and he wore a loincloth of leather; and his food was locusts and wild honey.
001:007 His announcement was, "There is One coming after me mightier than I—One whose sandal-strap I am unworthy to stoop down and unfasten.
001:008 I have baptized you with water, but He will baptize you
with the Holy Spirit."
001:009 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized
by John in the Jordan;
001:010 and immediately on His coming up out of the water He saw an opening in the sky, and the Spirit like a dove coming down to Him;
001:011 and a voice came from the sky, saying, "Thou art My Son dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."
001:012 At once the Spirit impelled Him to go out into the Desert,
001:013 where He remained for forty days, tempted by Satan; and He
was among the wild beasts, but the angels waited upon Him.
001:014 Then, after John had been thrown into prison, Jesus came
into Galilee proclaiming God's Good News.
001:015 "The time has fully come," He said, "and the Kingdom of God
is close at hand: repent, and believe this Good News.
