And he proclaimed, saying, I indeed baptized you with water; but One cometh after me more powerful than I; the latchet of His sandals I am not worthy, having stooped down, to loose, and He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.


I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but there is One coming after me more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry; He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and fire. Whose fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly purify His threshing-floor, and gather His wheat into the garner, and will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

John responded to all, saying; I indeed baptize you with water; but there cometh One more powerful than I, the latchet of His sandals I am not worthy to loose; He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and fire. Whose fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly purify His threshing-floor, and gather the wheat into His garner, and will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

John responded to them, saying, I baptize with water: There standeth One in your midst whom you do not know, the One coming after me, of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the latchet of His sandal. These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing. read more.
On the following day he sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world. This is He concerning whom I spoke, A man cometh after me who has been before me: because he was my Creator. And I did not know Him, but in order that He may be made manifest to Israel, on this account I came baptizing with water. And John testified saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and remained on Him. And I did not know Him, but the One having sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whom you may see the Spirit descending and remaining on Him, He is the one baptizing with the Holy Ghost. And I have seen, and testified that He is the Son of God. On the following day John again stood, and two of his disciples, and looking upon Jesus walking about, says, Behold, the Lamb of God.

And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, He who is with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all are coming to Him. John responded and said, No man is able to receive anything, unless it may have been given unto him from heaven. You are witnessing to me, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before Him. The one having the bride is the Bridegroom: but the friend of the Bridegroom is the one standing and hearing him, rejoiceth with joy on account of the Bridegroom: This, my joy has been made complete. It behooveth Him to increase, and me to decrease. He that cometh from above is above all; the one being of the earth is of the earth, and speaks of the earth. The one coming from heaven witnesses what He has seen and heard, and no one receives His testimony. The one having received His testimony hath set his seal, that God is true. For whom God sent speaketh the words of God: for He does not give His spirit by measure. The Father loves the Son, and has given all things in His hands. He that believes on the Son has eternal life; but he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.

And having asked for a writing tablet, he wrote saying; His name is John. And all marveled. And his mouth immediately opened and his tongue loosed, and he continued to speak, praising God. And fear came upon all of those dwelling around; and all these words were spoken abroad in all the mountainous regions of Judea. read more.
And all those hearing placed them in their heart, saying; What then shall this little child be? And the hand of the Lord was with him. And Zacharias his father was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied saying; Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, because He looked upon us and wrought redemption to His people, and raised up unto us a horn of salvation in the house of David His son. As he spoke through the mouth of His holy prophets from the beginning; salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all those who hate us, to execute mercy with our fathers, and remember His holy covenant, the oath which He swore to Abraham our father: to grant unto us, having been delivered out of the hand of our enemies, to serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life. And thou, little child, shall be called a prophet of the Highest; for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways,

There was a man having been sent from God, whose name was John; The same came for a witness, that he might bear witness concerning the light, in order that all through him might believe. He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness concerning the light. read more.
That was the true light, which lighteth every man, coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But so many as received Him, to them gave He the right to become the children of God, to those believing on His name: who were born not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. The Word was made flesh, and tented among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten with the Father), full of grace and truth. John beareth witness concerning Him, and cried out saying; This is He of whom I spoke, He that cometh after me has been before me:

John responded and said, No man is able to receive anything, unless it may have been given unto him from heaven. You are witnessing to me, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before Him.

You sent to John, and he witnessed to the truth: but I do not receive the witness with man: but I speak these things that you may be saved. He was a bright and shining light: and you were willing to rejoice for an hour in that light.
