Matthew 3 : 13 - 17
13 | Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. |
14 | And John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?" |
15 | But Jesus answered and said to him, "Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he allowed Him. |
16 | When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. |
17 | And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." |
