Mark 1:6-9 English Standard Version (ESV)

6. Now John was clothed with camel’s hair and wore a leather belt around his waist and ate locusts and wild honey.

7. And he preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.

8. I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

9. In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
