Matthew 3:13-17 - The Baptism Of Jesus

Matthew 3:13-17

13 Then, cometh Jesus, from Galilee to the Jordan, unto John, - to be immersed by him. 14 But, he, would have hindered him, saying - I, have, need, by thee, to be immersed, - and dost, thou, come unto me?

15 But Jesus answering, said unto him, Suffer me even now, - for, thus, it becometh us, to fulfil, all righteousness; then, he suffered him.

16 And Jesus, having been immersed, straightway, went up from the water, - and lo! the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God, descending like a dove coming upon him; 17 and lo! a voice out of the heavens, - saying, This, is my Son, the Beloved, in whom I delight.

Mark 1:9-11

9 And it came to pass, in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed into the Jordan by John; 10 And, straightway, as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rending asunder, and, the Spirit, as a dove, descending unto him; 11 and a voice cameout of the heavens - Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, - In thee, I delight.

Luke 3:21-22

21 Now it came to pass, when one and all the people were immersed, Jesus also, having been immersed, and being at prayer, heaven was opened; 22 and the Holy Spirit descended, in bodily appearance, as a dove, upon him, - and, a voice out of heaven, came - Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, in thee, I delight.
