- 0:01Luke chapter 3. Now in the 15th year of the
- 0:04reign of Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of
- 0:07Judea, and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip
- 0:10was tetrarch of the region of Eturia and Trachonitus, and
- 0:14Lysanius was tetrarch of Abilene.
- 0:17In the high priesthood of Anise and Caiaphas.
- 0:19The Word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the
- 0:22wilderness, and he came into all the district around the Jordan,
- 0:26preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness
- 0:28of sins, as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the
- 0:32prophet. The voice of one crying in the
- 0:34wilderness. Make ready the way of the Lord,
- 0:37make his path straight. Every ravine will be filled, and
- 0:40every mountain and hill will be brought low.
- 0:42The crooked will become straight, and the rough roads
- 0:44smooth, and all flesh will see the salvation of God.
- 0:49So he began saying to the crowds who were going out to be
- 0:51baptized by him. You brood of Vipers, who warned
- 0:54you to flee from the wrath to come?
- 0:57Therefore bear fruits in keeping with repentance.
- 0:59And do not begin to say to yourselves, We have Abraham for
- 1:02our father. For I say to you, that from
- 1:04these stones God is able to raise up children to Abraham.
- 1:07Indeed, the axe is already laid at the root of the trees, so
- 1:10every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and
- 1:13thrown into the fire. And the crowds were questioning
- 1:16him, saying, then what shall we do?
- 1:18And he would answer and say to them, The man who has two tunics
- 1:21is to share with him who has none, and he who has food is to
- 1:25do likewise. And some tax collectors also
- 1:27came to be baptized. And they said to him, Teacher,
- 1:30what shall we do? And he said to them, Collect no
- 1:33more than what you have been ordered to.
- 1:35Some soldiers were questioning him, saying, and what about us,
- 1:38what shall we do? And he said to them, do not take
- 1:42money from anyone by force or accuse anyone falsely, and be
- 1:46content with your wages. Now while the people were in a
- 1:49state of expectation, and all were wondering in their hearts
- 1:51about John as to whether he was the Christ, John answered and
- 1:55said to them all, As for me, I baptize you with water.
- 1:59But one is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not
- 2:02fit to untie the thong of his sandals.
- 2:04He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
- 2:08His winnowing fork is in his hand to thoroughly clear his
- 2:11threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but he
- 2:15will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
- 2:18So with many other exhortations he preached the gospel to the
- 2:20people. But when Herod the tetrarch was
- 2:23reprimanded by him because of Herodias his brother's wife,
- 2:26because of all the wicked things which Herod had done, Herod also
- 2:30added this to them all. He locked John up in prison.
- 2:34Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus was also
- 2:36baptized. And while he was praying, heaven
- 2:39was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily
- 2:42form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven.
- 2:45You are my beloved Son, and you I am well pleased.
