3 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

13Then Jesus arrived at the Jordan from Galilee, and came to John to be baptized by him.The Baptism of Jesus Mt.3.13-17 (Bethabara) | Mk.1.9-11 | Lk.3.21-22Τότε παραγίνεται ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἀπὸ τῆς Γαλιλαίας ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰορδάνην πρὸς τὸν Ἰωάννην τοῦ βαπτισθῆναι ὑπ' αὐτοῦ.
14John tried to dissuade him. 'Do you come to me?' he said; 'I need rather to be baptized by you.' ὁ δὲ Ἰωάννης διεκώλυεν αὐτὸν λέγων, Ἐγὼ χρείαν ἐχω ὑπὸ σοῦ βαπτισθῆναι, καὶ σὺ ἐρχῃ πρός μὲ;
15Jesus replied, 'Let it be so for the present; we do well to conform in this way with all that God requires.' John then allowed him to come. ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν, Ἀφες ἀρτι, οὑτως γὰρ πρέπον ἐστὶν ἡμῖν πληρῶσαι πᾶσαν δικαιοσύνην. τότε ἀφίησιν αὐτόν.
16After baptism Jesus came up out of the water at once, and at that moment heaven opened; he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove to alight upon him; βαπτισθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εὐθὺς ἀνέβη ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑδατος· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἠνεῴχθησαν αὐτῷ οἱ οὐρανοί, καὶ εἶδεν τὸ Πνεῦμα τοῦ θεοῦ καταβαῖνον ὡσεὶ περιστερὰν καὶ ἐρχόμεν ον ἐπ' αὐτόν·
17and a voice from heaven was heard saying, 'This is my Son, my Beloved, Or: This is my only Son. on whom my favour rests.'
 καὶ ἰδοὺ φωνὴ ἐκ τῶν οὐρανῶν λέγουσα, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ υἱός μου ὁ ἀγαπητός, ἐν ᾧ εὐδόκησα.
