Then said Paul, John truly baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
John bore witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spoke, He that comes after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there stands one among you, whom you know not;
He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's lace I am not worthy to unloose.
The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
For John truly baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
