Matthew 3:15-17
International Standard Version
15 But Jesus answered him, “Let it be this way for now, because this is the proper way for us to fulfill all righteousness.”[a]
At this, he permitted him to be baptized.[b] 16 When Jesus had been baptized, he immediately came up out of the water. Suddenly, the heavens opened up for him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him. 17 Then a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love. I am pleased with him!”
