Living_Oracles(i)
2 As it is written in Isaiah the Prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before thee, who shall prepare thy way:"
3 "The voice of one proclaiming in the wilderness, Prepare a way for the Lord, make for him a straight passage:"
4 thus came John immersing in the wilderness, and publishing the immersion of reformation for the remission of sins.
5 And all the country of Judea, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, resorted to him, and were immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Now John's clothing was of camel's hair, tied around his waist with a leather girdle: and he lived upon locusts and wild honey.
7 And he proclaimed, saying, One mightier than I comes after me, whose shoe-latchet I am unworthy to stoop down and untie.
8 I, indeed, have immersed you in water; but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.
