Luke 3:14-16

International Standard Version

¹⁴ Even some soldiers were asking him, “And what should we do?”

He told them, “Never extort money from anyone by threats or blackmail, and be satisfied with your pay.”

¹⁵ Now the people were filled with expectation, and all of them were wondering if John was perhaps the Messiah.^{[a] 16} John replied to all of them, “I’m baptizing you with^[b] water, but one is coming who is more powerful than I, and I’m not worthy to untie his sandal straps. It is he who will baptize you with^[c] the Holy Spirit and fire.
