26. John answered them, saying, I baptize with water, but there stands one among you, whom ye know not;
27. he it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe’s latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
28. These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29. The next day John saw Jesus coming unto him and said, Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
30. This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.
31. And I knew him not; but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32. And John gave testimony, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
