Luke 3:2-4

New Testament for Everyone

²Annas and Caiaphas were the high priests.

At that time, the word of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the wilderness. ³He went through all the region of the Jordan, announcing a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. ⁴This is what is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet:

A voice shouting in the wilderness:
get ready a path for the Lord,
make the roads straight for him!
