I indeed baptize you in water to repentance; but He who is coming after me is stronger than me, whose sandals I am not able to lift. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and fire,
John answered all, saying, I indeed baptize you with water; but He stronger than I comes, of whom I am not fit to loose the thong of His sandals. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and fire,
And as John fulfilled the course, he said, Whom do you suppose me to be? Not I AM, but, behold, “He comes after me, One of whom I am not worthy to loose the sandal of His feet.” John 1:27
And Paul said, John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe into the One coming after him, that is, into the Christ, Jesus.
