Luke 3:1-18

Now
<1161>
in
<1722>
the fifteenth
<4003>
year
<2094>
of the reign
<2231>
of Tiberius
<5086>
Caesar
<2541>_,
Pontius
<4194>
Pilate
<4091>
being governor
<2230> (5723)
of Judaea
<2449>_,
and
<2532>
Herod
<2264>
being tetrarch
<5075> (5723)
of Galilee
<1056>_,
and
<1161>
his
<846>
brother
<80>
Philip
<5376>
tetrarch
<5075> (5723)
of Ituraea
<2484>
and
<2532>
of the region
<5561>
of Trachonitis
<5139>_,
and
<2532>
Lysanias
<3078>
the tetrarch
<5075> (5723)
of Abilene
<9>_,
{tetrarch: or, governor of four provinces}
Annas
<452>
and
<2532>
Caiaphas
<2533>
being
<1909>
the high priests
<749>_,
the word
<4487>
of God
<2316>
came
<1096> (5633)
unto
<1909>
John
<2491>
the son
<5207>
of Zacharias
<2197>
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>_.
And
<2532>
he came
<2064> (5627)
into
<1519>
all
<3956>
the country about
<4066>
Jordan
<2446>_,
preaching
<2784> (5723)
the baptism
<908>
of repentance
<3341>
for
<1519>
the remission
<859>
of sins
<266>_;
As
<5613>
it is written
<1125> (5769)
in
<1722>
the book
<976>
of the words
<3056>
of Esaias
<2268>
the prophet
<4396>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
The voice
<5456>
of one crying
<994> (5723)
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>_,
Prepare ye
<2090> (5657)
the way
<3598>
of the Lord
<2962>_,
make
<4160> (5720)
his
<846>
paths
<5147>
straight
<2117>_.
Every
<3956>
valley
<5327>
shall be
<2071> (5704)
filled
<4137> (5701)_,
and
<2532>
every
<3956>
mountain
<3735>
and
<2532>
hill
<1015>
shall be brought low
<5013> (5701)_;
and
<2532>
the crooked
<4646>
shall be made
<1519>
straight
<2117>_,
and
<2532>
the rough
<5138>
ways
<3598>
[shall be] made
<1519>
smooth
<3006>_;
And
<2532>
all
<3956>
flesh
<4561>
shall see
<3700> (5695)
the salvation
<4992>
of God
<2316>_.
Then
<3767>
said
<3004> (5707)
he to the multitude
<3793>
that came forth
<1607> (5740) (5734)
to be baptized
<907> (5683)
of
<5259>
him
<846>_,
O generation
<1081>
of vipers
<2191>_,
who
<5101>
hath warned
<5263> (5656)
you
<5213>
to flee
<5343> (5629)
from
<575>
the wrath
<3709>
to come
<3195> (5723)_?
Bring forth
<4160> (5657)
therefore
<3767>
fruits
<2590>
worthy
<514>
of repentance
<3341>_,
and
<2532>
begin
<756> (5672)
not
<3361>
to say
<3004> (5721)
within
<1722>
yourselves
<1438>_,
We have
<2192> (5719)
Abraham
<11>
to [our] father
<3962>_:
for
<1063>
I say
<3004> (5719)
unto you
<5213>_,
That
<3754>
God
<2316>
is able
<1410> (5736)
of
<1537>
these
<5130>
stones
<3037>
to raise up
<1453> (5658)
children
<5043>
unto Abraham
<11>_.
{worthy of: or, meet for}
And
<1161>
now
<2235>
also
<2532>
the axe
<513>
is laid
<2749> (5736)
unto
<4314>
the root
<4491>
of the trees
<1186>_:
every
<3956>
tree
<1186>
therefore
<3767>
which bringeth
<4160> (0)
not
<3361>
forth
<4160> (5723)
good
<2570>
fruit
<2590>
is hewn down
<1581> (5743)_,
and
<2532>
cast
<906> (5743)
into
<1519>
the fire
<4442>_.
And
<2532>
the people
<3793>
asked
<1905> (5707)
him
<846>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
What
<5101>
shall we do
<4160> (5692)
then
<3767>_?
He answereth
<611> (5679)
and
<1161>
saith
<3004> (5719)
unto them
<846>_,
He that hath
<2192> (5723)
two
<1417>
coats
<5509>_,
let him impart
<3330> (5628)
to him that hath
<2192> (5723)
none
<3361>_;
and
<2532>
he that hath
<2192> (5723)
meat
<1033>_,
let him do
<4160> (5720)
likewise
<3668>_.
Then
<1161>
came
<2064> (5627)
also
<2532>
publicans
<5057>
to be baptized
<907> (5683)_,
and
<2532>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
him
<846>_,
Master
<1320>_,
what
<5101>
shall we do
<4160> (5692)_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
them
<846>_,
Exact
<4238> (5719)
no
<3367>
more
<4119>
than
<3844>
that which is appointed
<1299> (5772)
you
<5213>_.
And
<1161>
the soldiers
<4754> (5734)
likewise
<2532>
demanded
<1905> (5707)
of him
<846>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
And
<2532>
what
<5101>
shall we
<2249>
do
<4160> (5692)_?
And
<2532>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
them
<846>_,
Do violence
<1286> (5661)
to no man
<3367>_,
neither
<3366>
accuse [any] falsely
<4811> (5661)_;
and
<2532>
be content
<714> (5744)
with your
<5216>
wages
<3800>_.
{Do violence...: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}
And
<1161>
as the people
<2992>
were in expectation
<4328> (5723)_,
and
<2532>
all men
<3956>
mused
<1260> (5740)
in
<1722>
their
<846>
hearts
<2588>
of
<4012>
John
<2491>_,
whether
<3379> (0)
he
<846>
were
<1498> (5751)
the Christ
<5547>_,
or not
<3379>_;
{in expectation: or, in suspense} {mused: or, reasoned, or, debated}
John
<2491>
answered
<611> (5662)_,
saying
<3004> (5723)
unto [them] all
<537>_,
I
<1473>
indeed
<3303>
baptize
<907> (5719)
you
<5209>
with water
<5204>_;
but
<1161>
one mightier than
<2478>
I
<3450>
cometh
<2064> (5736)_,
the latchet
<2438>
of whose
<3739> <846>
shoes
<5266>
I am
<1510> (5748)
not
<3756>
worthy
<2425>
to unloose
<3089> (5658)_:
he
<846>
shall baptize
<907> (5692)
you
<5209>
with
<1722>
the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>
and
<2532>
with fire
<4442>_:
Whose
<3739>
fan
<4425>
[is] in
<1722>
his
<846>
hand
<5495>_,
and
<2532>
he will throughly purge
<1245> (5692)
his
<846>
floor
<257>_,
and
<2532>
will gather
<4863> (5692)
the wheat
<4621>
into
<1519>
his
<846>
garner
<596>_;
but
<1161>
the chaff
<892>
he will burn
<2618> (5692)
with fire
<4442>
unquenchable
<762>_.
And
<2532> <3767>
many
<4183> (0)
other
<2087>
things
<4183> <3303>
in his exhortation
<3870> (5723)
preached
<2097> (5710)
he unto the people
<2992>_.
