1 Now 1161 in 1722 the fifteenth 4003 year 2094 of the reign 2231 of Tiberius 5086 Caesar 2541, Pontius 4194 Pilate 4091 being governor 2230 of Judaea 2449, and 2532 Herod 2264 being tetrarch 5075 of Galilee 1056, and 1161 his 846 brother 80 Philip 5376 tetrarch 5075 of Ituraea 2484 and 2532 of the region 5561 of Trachonitis 5139, and 2532 Lysanias 3078 the tetrarch 5075 of Abilene 9,
2 Annas 452 and 2532 Caiaphas 2533 being 1909 the high priests 749, the word 4487 of God 2316 came 1096 unto 1909 John 2491 the son 5207 of Zacharias 2197 in 1722 the wilderness 2048.
3 And 2532 he came 2064 into 1519 all 3956 the country about 4066 Jordan 2446, preaching 2784 the baptism 908 of repentance 3341 for 1519 the remission 859 of sins 266;
4 As 5613 it is written 1125 in 1722 the book 976 of the words 3056 of Esaias 2268 the prophet 4396, saying 3004, The voice 5456 of one crying 994 in 1722 the wilderness 2048, Prepare ye 2090 the way 3598 of the Lord 2962, make 4160 his 846 paths 5147 straight 2117.
5 Every 3956 valley 5327 shall be 2071 filled 4137, and 2532 every 3956 mountain 3735 and 2532 hill 1015 shall be brought low 5013; and 2532 the crooked 4646 shall be made 1519 straight 2117, and 2532 the rough 5138 ways 3598 shall be made 1519 smooth 3006;
6 And 2532 all 3956 flesh 4561 shall see 3700 the salvation 4992 of God 2316.
7 Then 3767 said 3004 he to the multitude 3793 that came forth 1607 to be baptized 907 of 5259 him 846, O generation 1081 of vipers 2191, who 5101 hath warned 5263 you 5213 to flee 5343 from 575 the wrath 3709 to come 3195?
8 Bring forth 4160 therefore 3767 fruits 2590 worthy 514 of repentance 3341, and 2532 begin 756 not 3361 to say 3004 within 1722 yourselves 1438, We have 2192 Abraham 11 to our father 3962: for 1063 I say 3004 unto you 5213, That 3754 God 2316 is able 1410 of 1537 these 5130 stones 3037 to raise up 1453 children 5043 unto Abraham 11.
9 And 1161 now 2235 also 2532 the axe 513 is laid 2749 unto 4314 the root 4491 of the trees 1186: every 3956 tree 1186 therefore 3767 which bringeth 4160 0 not 3361 forth 4160 good 2570 fruit 2590 is hewn down 1581, and 2532 cast 906 into 1519 the fire 4442.
10 And 2532 the people 3793 asked 1905 him 846, saying 3004, What 5101 shall we do 4160 then 3767?
11 He answereth 611 and 1161 saith 3004 unto them 846, He that hath 2192 two 1417 coats 5509, let him impart 3330 to him that hath 2192 none 3361; and 2532 he that hath 2192 meat 1033, let him do 4160 likewise 3668.
12 Then 1161 came 2064 also 2532 publicans 5057 to be baptized 907, and 2532 said 2036 unto 4314 him 846, Master 1320, what 5101 shall we do 4160?
13 And 1161 he said 2036 unto 4314 them 846, Exact 4238 no 3367 more 4119 than 3844 that which is appointed 1299 you 5213.
14 And 1161 the soldiers 4754 likewise 2532 demanded 1905 of him 846, saying 3004, And 2532 what 5101 shall we 2249 do 4160? And 2532 he said 2036 unto 4314 them 846, Do violence 1286 to no man 3367, neither 3366 accuse any falsely 4811; and 2532 be content 714 with your 5216 wages 3800.
15 And 1161 as the people 2992 were in expectation 4328, and 2532 all men 3956 mused 1260 in 1722 their 848 hearts 2588 of 4012 John 2491, whether 3379 0 he 846 were 1498 the Christ 5547, or not 3379;
16 John 2491 answered 611, saying 3004 unto them all 537, I 1473 indeed 3303 baptize 907 you 5209 with water 5204; but 1161 one mightier than 2478 I 3450 cometh 2064, the latchet 2438 of whose 3739 shoes 5266 I am 1510 not 3756 worthy 2425 to unloose 3089: he 846 shall baptize 907 you 5209 with 1722 the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 and 2532 with fire 4442:
17 Whose 3739 fan 4425 is in 1722 his 846 hand 5495, and 2532 he will throughly purge 1245 his 848 floor 257, and 2532 will gather 4863 the wheat 4621 into 1519 his 848 garner 596; but 1161 the chaff 892 he will burn 2618 with fire 4442 unquenchable 762.
18 And 2532 3767 many 4183 0 other 2087 things 4183 3303 in his exhortation 3870 preached 2097 he unto the people 2992.
19 But 1161 Herod 2264 the tetrarch 5076, being reproved 1651 by 5259 him 846 for 4012 Herodias 2266 his 846 brother 80 Philip's 5376 wife 1135, and 2532 for 4012 all 3956 the evils 4190 which 3739 Herod 2264 had done 4160,
20 Added 4369 yet 2532 this 5124 above 1909 all 3956, that 2532 he shut up 2623 John 2491 in 1722 prison 5438.
21 Now 1161 when all 537 the people 2992 were baptized 1722 907, it came to pass 1096, that Jesus 2424 also 2532 being baptized 907, and 2532 praying 4336, the heaven 3772 was opened 455,
22 And 2532 the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 descended 2597 in a bodily 4984 shape 1491 like 5616 a dove 4058 upon 1909 him 846, and 2532 a voice 5456 came 1096 from 1537 heaven 3772, which said 3004, Thou 4771 art 1488 my 3450 beloved 27 Son 5207; in 1722 thee 4671 I am well pleased 2106.
23 And 2532 Jesus 2424 himself 846 began 756 to be 2258 about 5616 thirty 5144 years of age 2094, being 5607 (as 5613 was supposed 3543) the son 5207 of Joseph 2501, which was the son of Heli 2242,
