Chapter of the day
Luke 3:1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius
Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod
being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch
of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias
the tetrarch of Abilene,
Luke 3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word
of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the
wilderness.
Luke 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan,
preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of
sins;
Luke 3:4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias
the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the
wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths
straight.
Luke 3:5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain
and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made
straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
Luke 3:6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Luke 3:7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be
baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you
to flee from the wrath to come?
Luke 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance,
and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to
our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these
stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
Luke 3:9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the
trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good
fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Luke 3:10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do
then?
Luke 3:11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two
coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that
hath meat, let him do likewise.
Luke 3:12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said
unto him, Master, what shall we do?
Luke 3:13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that
which is appointed you.
Luke 3:14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying,
And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to
no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your
wages.
Luke 3:15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men
mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ,
or not;
Luke 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed
baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the
latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall
baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
Luke 3:17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly
purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner;
but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
Luke 3:18 And many other things in his exhortation preached
he unto the people.
Luke 3:19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for
Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils
which Herod had done,
Luke 3:20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in
prison.
Luke 3:21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to
pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the
heaven was opened,
Luke 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape
like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which
said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
