ABU(i)
1 THE beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, Son of God,
2 as it is written in Isaiah the prophet: Behold, I send forth my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way;
3 the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.
4 John came immersing in the wilderness, and preaching the immersion of repentance unto remission of sins.
5 And there went out to him all the country of Judaea, and all they of Jerusalem; and they were immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
