Mark 1:7-11

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ He announced, “The one who comes after me is more powerful than I. I am not worthy to bend down and untie his sandal straps. ⁸ I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

John Baptizes Jesus^(A)

⁹ At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan River. ¹⁰ As Jesus came out of the water, he saw heaven split open and the Spirit coming down to him as a dove. ¹¹ A voice from heaven said, “You are my Son, whom I love. I am pleased with you.”
