- Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
- Now John wore a garment of camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.
- Bear fruit in keeping with repentance.
- And behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”
My son, be attentive to my words;
incline your ear to my sayings.
Let them not escape from your sight;
keep them within your heart.
