Matthew 3:1-6

Coverdale(i) 1 In those dayes Ihon the Baptyst came and preached in the wildernes of Iury, 2 saynge: Amede youre selues, the kyngdome of heuen is at honde. 3 This is he, of whom it is spoke by ye Prophet Esay, which sayeth: The voyce of a cryer in ye wyldernes, prepare the LORDES waye, and make his pathes straight. 4 This Ihon had his garment of camels heer, and a lethre gerdell aboute his loynes. Hys meate was locustes and wylde hony. 5 Then went out to hym Ierusalem, and all Iury, and all the region rounde aboute Iordan, 6 and were baptised of him in Iordan, cofessynge their synnes.
