Mateus 3

1 In those days John Baptist came, and preached in the desert of Judea,

2 and said, Do ye penance, for the kingdom of heaven shall [come] nigh.

3 For this is he, of whom it is said by Isaiah, the prophet, saying, A voice of a crier in desert, [or A voice of a man crying in desert], Make ye ready the ways of the Lord; make ye right the paths of him.

4 And this John had clothing [or a cloth] of camel’s hairs, and a girdle of skin about his loins; and his meat was honeysuckles [or locusts], and honey of the wood.

5 Then Jerusalem went out to him, and all Judea, and all the country about Jordan;

6 and they were washed [or christened] of him in Jordan, acknowledging their sins.
