16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

16 A, no ka oti a Ihu te iriiri, tika tonu ake ia i te wai: na ko te rangi ka tuwhera ki a ia, a ka kite ia i te Wairua o te Atua e heke iho ana me he kukupa, a tau ana ki runga ki a ia:

17 Na ko tetahi reo no te rangi e mea ana, Ko taku Tama tenei i aroha ai, ko taku i ahuareka ai.
