All hail the power of Jesus' name,
let angels prostrate fall.
| Matthew 3:4 | Now John wore clothing made of camel’s hair, with a leather belt about his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey. |
| Matthew 3:5 | At that time people were going out to him from Jerusalem and all Judea and all the (hē | ἡ | nom sg fem) region along the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) Jordan, |
| Matthew 3:6 | and they were being baptized by him in the (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) river Jordan river confessing their sins. |
| Matthew 3:7 | But when he saw many of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) coming wrath? |
| Matthew 3:8 | Therefore bear fruit worthy of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) repentance, |
| Matthew 3:9 | and do not presume you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father’; for I say to you that God is able from these stones to raise up children to (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) Abraham. |
| Matthew 3:10 | Even now the (hē | ἡ | nom sg fem) axe is lying at the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) root of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) trees; so any tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. |
| Matthew 3:11 | “I baptize you with water for repentance, but the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) one who comes after me is greater than I — I am not worthy even to remove his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. |
| Matthew 3:12 | His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clean out his threshing floor and gather his wheat into the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) barn; but the (to | τό | acc sg neut) chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.” |
| Matthew 3:13 | Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) Jordan river to be baptized by him. |

| Matthew 3:15 | But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now; for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed him. |
| Matthew 3:16 | And when Jesus was baptized, just as he was coming up from the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) water, the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) heavens were opened, and he saw the (to | τό | acc sg neut) Spirit of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) God descending like a dove and lighting on him. |
| Matthew 3:17 | And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) Beloved, in whom I delight.” |
| Matthew 4:1 | Then Jesus was led by the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) Spirit into the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) wilderness to be tempted by the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) devil. |
| Matthew 4:3 | And the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) God, command these stones to become bread.” |
| Matthew 4:4 | But he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) replied, “Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.” |

| Matthew 4:6 | and said to him, “If you are the Son of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) God, throw yourself down, for it stands written: ‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ and, ‘on their hands they will hold you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.’” |
| Matthew 4:7 | Jesus said to him, “It also stands written: ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’” |
| Matthew 4:8 | Again, the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the (tas | τάς | acc pl fem) kingdoms of the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) world and their splendor; |

| Matthew 4:11 | Then the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) devil left him, and behold, angels came and began to take care of him. |
