28 This encounter took place across the Jordan in Bethany where John was baptizing.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, "Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
30 This is the one about whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is really greater than me because he existed before me.’
31 Even I didn’t recognize him, but I came baptizing with water so that he might be made known to Israel."
32 John testified, "I saw the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove, and it rested on him.
33 Even I didn’t recognize him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘The one on whom you see the Spirit coming down and resting is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
34 I have seen and testified that this one is God’s Son."
