Matthew 3:15-17
English Standard Version
15 But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he consented. 16 And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, (A)the heavens were opened to him,[a] and he (B)saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; 17 and behold, (C)a voice from heaven said, (D)“This is my beloved Son,[b] with whom I am well pleased.”
