Matthew 3:13-17 - The Baptism Of Jesus

¹³ Then went Jesus from Galilee to Jordan to be baptized by John. ¹⁴ but John opposed him, I have need, said he, to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?

¹⁵ and Jesus answer'd, Let it be so for the present, for it becometh us to do whatever is right. then John consented.

¹⁶ and when Jesus was baptized, he came out of the water: and immediately the heavens seem'd to be parted asunder before him, and he saw the Spirit ¹⁷ of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: at the same time a voice was heard from heaven, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

⁹ At that time Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan. ¹⁰ and as soon as he was got out of the water, he saw the heavens open, and the spirit lighting upon him, like a dove. ¹¹ when this voice from heaven was heard, "thou art my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased."

²¹ When all the people were baptizing, Jesus was likewise baptized, and whilst he was praying, the clouds opened, ²² and the holy spirit descended upon him in a corporeal form like a dove. and a voice came from heaven, which said, thou art my beloved son, in thee I am well pleased.
