Mark 1:1-8

Whiston(i) 1 THE beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God, 2 As it is written in Esaias the prophet, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way. 3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the ways of our God, make his paths straight. 4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance, for the remission of sins. 5 And there went out unto him all the country of Judea, and all they of Jerusalem, and were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 And John was clothed with camels hair; and he did eat locusts and wild hony: 7 [7-8] And he said unto them, I indeed baptize you with water; but there cometh one after me who is mightier than I, the latches of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose, and he baptize you with the Holy Ghost. 8 --
