7 So he began saying to the crowds who were going out to be baptized by him, "You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?7 He said therefore to the multitudes that went out to be baptized of him, Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?7 He said therefore to the multitudes that went forth to be baptized by him: Ye offspring of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come? 7 Then said he to the multitudes coming forth to be baptised by him, 'Brood of vipers! who did prompt you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 "Therefore bear fruits in keeping with repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father,' for I say to you that from these stones God is able to raise up children to Abraham.8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of penance; and do not begin to say, We have Abraham for our father.

Every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down and cast into the fire. 9 and already also the axe unto the root of the trees is laid, every tree, therefore, not making good fruit is cut down, and to fire it is cast.'
10 And the crowds were questioning him, saying, "Then what shall we do?"10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?10 And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?10 And the people asked him, saying: What then shall we do? 10 And the multitudes were questioning him, saying, 'What, then, shall we do?'

11 And he would answer and say to them, "The man who has two tunics is to share with him who has none; and he who has food is to do likewise."11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.11 And he answered and said unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise.11 And he answering, said to them: He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do in like manner. 11 and he answering saith to them, 'He having two coats -- let him impart to him having none, and he having victuals -- in like manner let him do.'
12 And some tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what shall we do?"12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?12 And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Teacher, what must we do?12 And the publicans also came to be baptized, and said to him: Master, what shall we do? 12 And there came also tax-gatherers to be baptised, and they said unto him, 'Teacher, what shall we do?'
13 And he said to them, "Collect no more than what you have been ordered to."13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.13 And he said unto them, Extort no more than that which is appointed you.13 But he said to them: Do nothing more than that which is appointed you. 13 and he said unto them, 'Exact no more than that directed you.'
14 Some soldiers were questioning him, saying, "And what about us, what shall we do?" And he said to them, "Do not take money from anyone by force, or accuse anyone falsely, and be content with your wages."14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.14 And soldiers also asked him, saying, And we, what must we do? And he said unto them, Extort from no man by violence, neither accuse any one wrongfully; and be content with your wages.14 And the soldiers also asked him, saying: And what shall we do? And he said to them: Do violence to no man; neither calumniate any man; and be content with your pay. 14 And questioning him also were those warring, saying, 'And we, what shall we do?' and he said unto them, 'Do violence to no one, nor accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.'
15 Now while the people were in a state of expectation and all were wondering in their hearts about John, as to whether he was the Christ,15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether haply he were the Christ;15 And as the people were of opinion, and all were thinking in their hearts of John, that perhaps he might be the Christ; 15 And the people are looking forward, and all are reasoning in their hearts concerning John, whether or not he may be the Christ;

16 John answered and said to them all, "As for me, I baptize you with water; but One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to untie the thong of His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but there cometh he that is mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire:16 John answered, saying unto all: I indeed baptize you with water; but there shall come one mightier that I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: 16 John answered, saying to all, 'I indeed with water do baptise you, but he cometh who is mightier than I, of whom I am not worthy to loose the latchet of his sandals -- he shall baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire;
17 "His winnowing fork is in His hand to thoroughly clear His threshing floor, and to gather the wheat into His barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.17 whose fan is in his hand, thoroughly to cleanse his threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire. 17 whose winnowing shovel is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather the wheat to his storehouse, and the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.'
18 So with many other exhortations he preached the gospel to the people.18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.18 With many other exhortations therefore preached he good tidings unto the people;18 And many other things exhorting, did he preach to the people. 18 And, therefore, indeed with many other things, exhorting, he was proclaiming good news to the people,
19 But when Herod the tetrarch was reprimanded by him because of Herodias, his brother's wife, and because of all the wicked things which Herod had done,19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,19 but Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother's wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done,19 But Herod the tetrarch, when he was reproved by him for Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done; 19 and Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him concerning Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, and concerning all the evils that Herod did,
20 Herod also added this to them all: he locked John up in prison.20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.20 He added this also above all, and shut up John in prison. 20 added also this to all, that he shut up John in the prison.

NASBKJVASVDRBYLT
21 Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus was also baptized, and while He was praying, heaven was opened,21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that Jesus also being baptized and praying, heaven was opened; 21 And it came to pass, in all the people being baptised, Jesus also being baptised, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased."22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.22 and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form, as a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of heaven, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape, as a dove upon him; and a voice came from heaven: Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. 22 and the Holy Spirit came down in a bodily appearance, as if a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of heaven, saying, 'Thou art My Son -- the Beloved, in thee I did delight.'
