Matthew 3:1-3 ▼

1 Now in those days John the Baptist comes, preaching in the wilderness of Judea

2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near.”

3 For this is the one having been spoken of through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “A voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight His paths.’”
