Acts 13:23-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ God promised to send to the people of Israel someone who would save us. Jesus is the man that God sent to save us. He is a descendant of King David. ²⁴ Before Jesus began his work in this world, John spoke a message to all the people of Israel. He told people to stop doing wrong things and to turn to God. Then he would baptize them.^{[a] 25} When John had almost finished his work, he said to the people, “Perhaps you think that I am the special man that God will send. I am not that man. But listen! That man will come soon. I am not good enough even to undo his shoes for him.” ’^[b]
