¹¹ “As for me, ^(A)I baptize you ^[a]with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; ^(B)He will baptize you ^[b]with the Holy Spirit and fire. ¹² His ^(C)winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will ^(D)gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the ^(E)chaff with ^(F)unquenchable fire.”

²¹ Therefore, ^(A)ridding yourselves of all filthiness and all ^[a]that remains of wickedness, in ^[b]humility receive ^(B)the word implanted, which is able to save your souls.

^63 (A)It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh provides no benefit; ^(B)the words that I have spoken to you are spirit, and are life.
