Mark 1:5 CPDV

³  The voice of one crying out in the desert: Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight his paths.'

⁴  John was in the desert, baptizing and preaching a baptism of repentance, as a remission of sins.

⁵  And there went out to him all the region of Judea and all those of Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

⁶  And John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist. And he ate locusts and wild honey.

⁷  And he preached, saying: 'One stronger than me comes after me. I am not worthy to reach down and loosen the laces of his shoes.
