3  For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The ^bvoice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

  3  The ^avoice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

  4  As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The ^bvoice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

  28  For he was baptized while he was yet in his childhood, and was ordained by the angel of God at the time he was eight days old unto this power, to overthrow the kingdom of the Jews, and to ^cmake straight the way of the Lord before the face of his people, to prepare them for the coming of the Lord, in whose hand is given all power.

  1  Hearken, and lo, a voice as of one sent down from on high, who is mighty and powerful, whose going forth is unto the ends of the earth, yea, whose voice is unto men—^aPrepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
