Mark 1:2-6

Matthew 28 Mark 2

Mark 1:2-6 New King James Version (NKJV)

²As it is written in ^[a]the Prophets:

“Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,
Who will prepare Your way before You.”
³“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”

⁴John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance ^[b]for the remission of sins. ⁵Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.

⁶Now John was clothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
