31 And I did not recognize [a]Him, but so that He would be revealed to Israel, I came baptizing [b]in water.” 32 And John (A)testified, saying, “(B)I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He remained upon Him. 33 And I did not recognize [c]Him, but He who sent me to baptize [d]in water said to me, ‘He upon whom you see the Spirit descending and remaining upon Him, (C)this is the One who baptizes [e]in the Holy Spirit.’ 34 And I myself have seen, and have testified that this is (D)the [f]Son of God.”
