Luke 3:10-20
New American Standard Bible
10 And the crowds were questioning him, saying, “(A)Then what are we to do?” 11 And he would answer and say to them, “The one who has two [a]tunics is to (B)share with the one who has none; and the one who has food is to do likewise.” 12 Now even (C)tax collectors came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what are we to do?” 13 And he said to them, “[b]Collect no more than what you have been ordered to.” 14 And soldiers also were questioning him, saying, “What are we to do, we as well?” And he said to them, “Do not extort money from anyone, nor [c](D)harass anyone, and (E)be content with your wages.”
15 Now while the people were in a state of expectation and they all were thinking carefully in their hearts about John, (F)whether he himself perhaps was the [d]Christ, 16 (G)John responded to them all, saying, “As for me, I baptize you with water; but He is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to untie the straps of His sandals; He will baptize you [e]with the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His (H)winnowing fork is in His hand to thoroughly clear His threshing floor, and to gather the wheat into His barn; but He will burn up the chaff with (I)unquenchable fire.”
18 So with many other exhortations he preached the gospel to the people. 19 But when (J)Herod the tetrarch was reprimanded by him regarding (K)Herodias, his brother’s wife, and regarding all the evil things which (L)Herod had done, 20 Herod also added this to them all: (M)he locked John up in prison.

Luke 3:10-20
New International Version
10 “What should we do then?”(A) the crowd asked.
11 John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”(B)
12 Even tax collectors came to be baptized.(C) “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?”
13 “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,”(D) he told them.
14 Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?”
He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely(E)—be content with your pay.”
15 The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John(F) might possibly be the Messiah.(G) 16 John answered them all, “I baptize you with[a] water.(H) But one who is more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with[b] the Holy Spirit and fire.(I) 17 His winnowing fork(J) is in his hand to clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”(K) 18 And with many other words John exhorted the people and proclaimed the good news to them.
19 But when John rebuked Herod(L) the tetrarch because of his marriage to Herodias, his brother’s wife, and all the other evil things he had done, 20 Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison.(M)
