Mark 1:1-13
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; 2 As
it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy
face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. 3 The voice of one crying
in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths
straight. 4 John did
baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the
remission of sins. 5 And there went out unto him all the
land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the
river of Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 And John was clothed with
camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat
locusts and wild honey; 7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier
than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down
and unloose. 8 I indeed
have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you
with the Holy Ghost. 9 And it came to pass in those days, that
Jesus came from Nazareth of
Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. 10 And
straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the
Spirit like a dove descending upon him: 11 And there came a voice from
heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. 12 And
immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness. 13 And he was
there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the
wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
