The Baptism of Jesus
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan,
to be baptized by him. 14 John would have prevented him, saying, “I need to
be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” 15 But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so
now; for it is proper for us in this way to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he
consented. 16 And when Jesus had been baptized, just
as he came up from the water, suddenly the heavens were opened to him and he
saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is
my Son, the Beloved,[a]with whom I am well pleased.”
