Matthew 3:10-12
Worldwide English (New Testament)
10 The axe is ready to cut down the trees. Every tree that does not have good fruit is cut down and thrown into a fire.
11 `I baptise you with water when you stop your wrong ways. But another person is coming after me. He is greater than I am. I am not good enough to take off his shoes. He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
12 He has a cleaning fan in his hand and will fan his grain very clean. He will put the grain into his storehouse. But he will burn the chaff in the fire that never dies.'
