Matthew 3:13-17 - The Baptism Of Jesus

¹³ Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. ¹⁴ But John tried to prevent him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?"

¹⁵ But Jesus answered him, "Let it be so now; for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he consented.

¹⁶ And when Jesus was baptized, he went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and alighting on him. ¹⁷ And behold, a voice from heaven, saying, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."

⁹ In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. ¹⁰ And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit descending upon him like a dove. ¹¹ And a voice came from heaven, "You are my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."

²¹ When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was also baptized. And as he was praying, the heaven was opened ²² and the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, "You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased."
