10 And G2532 straightway G2112 coming up G305 out of G575 the water, G5204 he saw G1492 the heavens G3772 opened, G4977 and G2532 the Spirit G4151 like G5616 a dove G4058 descending G2597 upon G1909 him: G846
And G2532 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 descended G2597 in a bodily G4984 shape G1491 like G5616 a dove G4058 upon G1909 him, G846 and G2532 a voice G5456 came G1096 from G1537 heaven, G3772 which said, G3004 Thou G4771 art G1488 my G3450 beloved G27 Son; G5207 in G1722 thee G4671 I am well pleased. G2106
Oh H3863 that thou wouldest rend H7167 the heavens, H8064 that thou wouldest come down, H3381 that the mountains H2022 might flow down H2151 at thy presence, H6440
And G2532 Jesus, G2424 when he was baptized, G907 went up G305 straightway G2117 out of G575 the water: G5204 and, G2532 lo, G2400 the heavens G3772 were opened G455 unto him, G846 and G2532 he saw G1492 the Spirit G4151 of God G2316 descending G2597 like G5616 a dove, G4058 and G2532 lighting G2064 upon G1909 him: G846
Behold my servant, H5650 whom I uphold; H8551 mine elect, H972 in whom my soul H5315 delighteth; H7521 I have put H5414 my spirit H7307 upon him: he shall bring forth H3318 judgment H4941 to the Gentiles. H1471
And I G2504 knew G1492 him G846 not: G3756 but G235 that G2443 he should be made manifest G5319 to Israel, G2474 therefore G1223 G5124 am G2064 I G1473 come G2064 baptizing G907 with G1722 water. G5204 And G2532 John G2491 bare record, G3140 saying, G3004 G3754 I saw G2300 the Spirit G4151 descending G2597 from G1537 heaven G3772 like G5616 a dove, G4058 and G2532 it abode G3306 upon G1909 him. G846 And I G2504 knew G1492 him G846 not: G3756 but G235 he that sent G3992 me G3165 to baptize G907 with G1722 water, G5204 the same G1565 said G2036 unto me, G3427 Upon G1909 whom G3739 G302 thou shalt see G1492 the Spirit G4151 descending, G2597 and G2532 remaining G3306 on G1909 him, G846 the same G3778 is G2076 he which baptizeth G907 with G1722 the Holy G40 Ghost. G4151 And I G2504 saw, G3708 and G2532 bare record G3140 that G3754 this G3778 is G2076 the Son G5207 of God. G2316
