But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized by you, and come you to me?

John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I comes, the thong of whose shoes I am not worthy to untie: he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire:

Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not yourself: for I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof:

Therefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto you: but say a word, and my servant shall be healed.

He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's thong I am not worthy to unloose.

You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.

He must increase, but I must decrease.

And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think you that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there comes one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
