Matthew 3:10

New Messianic Version Bible

“Already the axe has reached the root of the tree; the one which does not produce good fruit will be cut down and burned in the fire”. The crowds asked him: ‘If so what shall we do’? Yochanan [Yah is gracious] answered them: “He who has two shirts let him give one to him who has none”. So the people came to be baptized. Many asked him ‘What shall we do’? And he answered them: “Be anxious for no man and do not chastise them, and be pleased with your lot”. And all the people were thinking and reckoning in their circumcised heart: ‘Yochanan [Yah is gracious] is Ha-Moshiach [Messiah] [The Messiah]’.
