¹⁶ After He was baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and ^[a](A)he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and ^[b]settling on Him,

^19 [a](A)Go, therefore, and ^(B)make disciples of ^(C)all the nations, ^(D)baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ teaching them to ^[b]follow all that I commanded you; and behold, ^(E)I am with you ^[c]always, to ^(F)the end of the age.”

²³ Now John also was baptizing in Aenon, near Salim, because there was an abundance of water there; and people were coming and being baptized—

³⁸ And he ordered that the ^[a]chariot stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him.

⁴⁸ And he ^(A)ordered them to be baptized ^(B)in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay on for a few days.

⁴ Therefore we have been ^(A)buried with Him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was ^(B)raised from the dead through the ^(C)glory of the Father, so we too may walk in ^(D)newness of life.

¹² having been ^(A)buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also ^(B)raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who ^(C)raised Him from the dead.
