In those days came John the Baptist,
Preaching in the wilderness of Judea.
And saying, and saying, and saying repent ye
For the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
For this is He that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias
Saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
Make His paths straight,
And this same John had his raiment of camel's hair
And bound with a leathern girdle;
And his meat was locusts and wild honey.
