1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,
2 and saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying,The voice of one crying in the wilderness,Prepare ye the way of the Lord,make his paths straight.
4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
