Matthew 3:14-16

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁴ But John earnestly hindered Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You! And You come to me?”

¹⁵ Then Jesus, answering, said to him, “Let it be for now. For it becomes us to fulfill all righteousness.” So, he permitted Him.

¹⁶ And Jesus, when He was baptized, came straight out of the water. And lo, the heavens were opened to Him. And the Spirit of God was seen, descending like a Dove, and lighting upon Him.
