InG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250 cameG3854 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910, preachingG2784 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 of JudaeaG2449,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, Repent yeG3340: forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448.
ForG1063 thisG3778 is heG2076 that was spokenG4483 of byG5259 the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
AndG1161 the sameG846 JohnG2491 hadG2192 hisG846 raimentG1742 ofG575 camel'sG2574 hairG2359, andG2532 a leathernG1193 girdleG2223 aboutG4012 hisG846 loinsG3751; andG1161 hisG846 meatG5160 wasG2258 locustsG200 andG2532 wildG66 honeyG3192.
ThenG5119 went outG1607 toG4314 himG846 JerusalemG2414, andG2532 allG3956 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 allG3956 the region round aboutG4066 JordanG2446,
AndG2532 were baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846 inG1722 JordanG2446, confessingG1843 theirG846 sinsG266.
ButG1161 when he sawG1492 manyG4183 of the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 SadduceesG4523 comeG2064 toG1909 hisG846 baptismG908, he saidG2036 unto themG846, O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, whoG5101 hath warnedG5263 youG5213 to fleeG5343 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG3195?
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 meetG514 for repentanceG3341: {meet…: or, answerable to amendment of life}
AndG2532 thinkG1380 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11.
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: thereforeG3767 everyG3956 treeG1186 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 waterG5204 untoG1519 repentanceG3341: butG1161 he that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 isG2076 mightier thanG2478 IG3450, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to bearG941: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 with fireG4442:
WhoseG3739 fanG4425 is inG1722 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 he will throughly purgeG1245 hisG846 floorG257, andG2532 gatherG4863 hisG846 wheatG4621 intoG1519 the garnerG596; butG1161 he will burn upG2618 the chaffG892 with unquenchableG762 fireG4442.
The beginningG746 of the gospelG2098 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of GodG2316;
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the prophetsG4396, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whichG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675.
The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
JohnG2491 didG1096 baptizeG907 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, andG2532 preachG2784 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266. {for: or, unto}
AndG2532 there went outG1607 untoG4314 himG846 allG3956 the landG5561 of JudaeaG2449, andG2532 they of JerusalemG2415, andG2532 wereG907 allG3956 baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846 inG1722 the riverG4215 of JordanG2446, confessingG1843 theirG846 sinsG266.
AndG1161 JohnG2491 wasG2258 clothedG1746 with camel'sG2574 hairG2359, andG2532 with a girdleG2223 of a skinG1193 aboutG4012 hisG846 loinsG3751; andG2532 he did eatG2068 locustsG200 andG2532 wildG66 honeyG3192;
AndG2532 preachedG2784, sayingG3004, There comethG2064 one mightier thanG2478 IG3450 afterG3694 meG3450, the latchetG2438 of whoseG3739 shoesG846+G5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to stoop downG2955 and unlooseG3089.
IG1473 indeedG3303 have baptizedG907 youG5209 withG1722 waterG5204: butG1161 heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
NowG1161 inG1722 the fifteenthG4003 yearG2094 of the reignG2231 of TiberiusG5086 CaesarG2541, PontiusG4194 PilateG4091 being governorG2230 of JudaeaG2449, andG2532 HerodG2264 being tetrarchG5075 of GalileeG1056, andG1161 hisG846 brotherG80 PhilipG5376 tetrarchG5075 of IturaeaG2484 andG2532 of the regionG5561 of TrachonitisG5139, andG2532 LysaniasG3078 the tetrarchG5075 of AbileneG9, {tetrarch: or, governor of four provinces}
AnnasG452 andG2532 CaiaphasG2533 beingG1909 the high priestsG749, the wordG4487 of GodG2316 cameG1096 untoG1909 JohnG2491 the sonG5207 of ZachariasG2197 inG1722 the wildernessG2048.
AndG2532 he cameG2064 intoG1519 allG3956 the country aboutG4066 JordanG2446, preachingG2784 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266;
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of the wordsG3056 of EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
EveryG3956 valleyG5327 shall beG2071 filledG4137, andG2532 everyG3956 mountainG3735 andG2532 hillG1015 shall be brought lowG5013; andG2532 the crookedG4646 shall be madeG1519 straightG2117, andG2532 the roughG5138 waysG3598 shall be madeG1519 smoothG3006;
AndG2532 allG3956 fleshG4561 shall seeG3700 the salvationG4992 of GodG2316.
ThenG3767 saidG3004 he to the multitudeG3793 that came forthG1607 to be baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846, O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, whoG5101 hath warnedG5263 youG5213 to fleeG5343 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG3195?
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 worthyG514 of repentanceG3341, andG2532 beginG756 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11. {worthy of: or, meet for}
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: everyG3956 treeG1186 thereforeG3767 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
AndG2532 the peopleG3793 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 shall we doG4160 thenG3767?
He answerethG611 andG1161 saithG3004 unto themG846, He that hathG2192 twoG1417 coatsG5509, let him impartG3330 to him that hathG2192 noneG3361; andG2532 he that hathG2192 meatG1033, let him doG4160 likewiseG3668.
ThenG1161 cameG2064 alsoG2532 publicansG5057 to be baptizedG907, andG2532 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, MasterG1320, whatG5101 shall we doG4160?
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, ExactG4238 noG3367 moreG4119 thanG3844 that which is appointedG1299 youG5213.
AndG1161 the soldiersG4754 likewiseG2532 demandedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, AndG2532 whatG5101 shall weG2249 doG4160? AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Do violenceG1286 to no manG3367, neitherG3366 accuse any falselyG4811; andG2532 be contentG714 with yourG5216 wagesG3800. {Do violence…: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}
AndG1161 as the peopleG2992 were in expectationG4328, andG2532 all menG3956 musedG1260 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588 ofG4012 JohnG2491, whetherG3379 heG846 wereG1498 the ChristG5547, or notG3379; {in expectation: or, in suspense} {mused: or, reasoned, or, debated}
JohnG2491 answeredG611, sayingG3004 unto them allG537, IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 with waterG5204; butG1161 one mightier thanG2478 IG3450 comethG2064, the latchetG2438 of whoseG3739+G846 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to unlooseG3089: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 with fireG4442:
WhoseG3739 fanG4425 is inG1722 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 he will throughly purgeG1245 hisG846 floorG257, andG2532 will gatherG4863 the wheatG4621 intoG1519 hisG846 garnerG596; butG1161 the chaffG892 he will burnG2618 with fireG4442 unquenchableG762.
AndG2532+G3767 manyG4183 otherG2087 thingsG4183+G3303 in his exhortationG3870 preachedG2097 he unto the peopleG2992.
The voiceH6963 of him that criethH7121 in the wildernessH4057, PrepareH6437 ye the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, make straightH3474 in the desertH6160 a highwayH4546 for our GodH430.
Every valleyH1516 shall be exaltedH5375, and every mountainH2022 and hillH1389 shall be made lowH8213: and the crookedH6121 shall be made straightH4334, and the rough placesH7406 plainH1237: {straight: or, a straight place} {plain: or, a plain place}
And the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 shall be revealedH1540, and all fleshH1320 shall seeH7200 it togetherH3162: for the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
GoH1980 and cryH7121 in the earsH241 of JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; I rememberH2142 thee, the kindnessH2617 of thy youthH5271, the loveH160 of thine espousalsH3623, when thou wentestH3212 afterH310 me in the wildernessH4057, in a landH776 that was not sownH2232. {thee: or, for thy sake}
IsraelH3478 was holinessH6944 unto the LORDH3068, and the firstfruitsH7225 of his increaseH8393: all that devourH398 him shall offendH816; evilH7451 shall comeH935 upon them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore, behold, I will allureH6601 her, and bringH3212 her into the wildernessH4057, and speakH1696 comfortablyH3820 unto her. {comfortably: or, friendly: Heb. to her heart}
The voiceH6963 of him that criethH7121 in the wildernessH4057, PrepareH6437 ye the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, make straightH3474 in the desertH6160 a highwayH4546 for our GodH430.
Every valleyH1516 shall be exaltedH5375, and every mountainH2022 and hillH1389 shall be made lowH8213: and the crookedH6121 shall be made straightH4334, and the rough placesH7406 plainH1237: {straight: or, a straight place} {plain: or, a plain place}
All we like sheepH6629 have gone astrayH8582; we have turnedH6437 every oneH376 to his own wayH1870; and the LORDH3068 hath laidH6293 on him the iniquityH5771 of us all. {laid…: Heb. made the iniquity of us all to meet on him}
