John the Baptist Prepares the Way
1 In those days aJohn the Baptist came preaching bin the wilderness of Judea,
2 and saying, “Repent, for athe kingdom of heaven is at hand!”
3 For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying:
a“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
b‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”
a“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
b‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”
4 Now aJohn himself was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist; and his food was blocusts and cwild honey.
5 aThen Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him
6 aand were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.
