| 1 | Now in those days Iohannes the Baptist arrives proclaiming in the desert of Judaea, |
| 2 | saying "Repent! For the kingdom of the heavens has neared!" |
| 3 | For this is that spoken through Isaiah the prophet saying: "A voice crying in the wilderness: 'prepare the way of the Prince, make straight His paths!'" |
| 4 | And Iohannes himself had his garment from hairs of camel and a leather belt around his loins, and his food was locusts and wild honey. |
| 5 | Then Jerusalem and all Judaea and all the region around the Jordan went out to him, |
| 6 | and they were immersed in the river Jordan by him, acknowledging their errors. |
| 7 | But seeing many of the Pharisees and the Sadducees coming to the immersion he said to them: "Race of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? |
| 8 | Indeed you should make fruit worthy of repentance |
| 9 | and do not think to say among yourselves: 'We have Abraham for a father'. For I say to you that Yahweh is able to raise up children for Abraham from these stones! |
| 10 | But already the axe is laid to the root of the trees: surely any tree not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire! " |
| 11 | Indeed I immerse you in water for repentance, but He coming after me is more powerful than me, of whom I am not worthy to carry the sandals. He shall immerse you in the Holy Spirit, and in fire! |
| 12 | Of whom the winnowing fan is in His hand, and He shall purge His threshing-floor and He shall gather His grain into His storehouse, but the chaff He shall burn with unquenchable fire!" |
| 13 | Then Yahshua arrives from Galilaia by the Jordan to Iohannes for which to be immersed by him. |
| 14 | But Iohannes prevented Him, saying: "I have need to be immersed by You, and You should come to me?" |
| 15 | Then responding Yahshua said to him: "Allow it for now, for thusly it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he allowed Him. |
| 16 | And being immersed Yahshua went up immediately from the water, and behold! The heavens opened, and He saw the Spirit of Yahweh descending as a dove and coming upon Him. |
| 17 | And behold! A voice from out of the heavens saying: "He is My beloved Son, in whom I am satisfied!" |
