John 1:19-34 - John The Baptist Testifies To Jesus
19 And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent forth priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, "Who are you?"
20 And he confessed, and denied not; and he confessed, "I am not the Christ."
21 And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he says, "I am not." "Are you the prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22 They said therefore, to him, "Who are you? that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say concerning yourself?"
23 He said, "'I am a voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord,'" as said Isaiah the prophet.
24 And they had been sent from among the Pharisees. 25 And they asked him, and said to him, "Why, then, do you immerse, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?"
26 John answered them, saying, "I immerse in water: in your midst standeth One Whom ye know not??27 the One coming after me, the latchet of Whose sandal I am not worthy to unloose."
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing.
29 On the morrow he sees Jesus coming to him, and he says, "Behold, the Lamb of God Who taketh away the sin of the world! 30 This is He of Whom I said, 'After me cometh a Man Who hath become before me, because He was before me.' 31 And I knew Him not; but, that He might be manifested to Israel, for this cause I came immersing in water."
32 And John testified, saying, "I have beheld the Spirit descending as a dove out of Heaven, and He abode upon Him. 33 And I knew Him not; but He who sent me to immerse in water, He said to me, 'Upon Whomsoever you shall see the Spirit descending and abiding on Him, the Same is He Who immerseth in the Holy Spirit.' 34 And I have seen, and have testified, that This is the Son of God."
