Luke 3:16-18

Living Bible

¹⁶ John answered the question by saying, “I baptize only with water; but someone is coming soon who has far higher authority than mine; in fact, I am not even worthy of being his slave.^[a] He will baptize you with fire—with the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ He will separate chaff from grain, and burn up the chaff with eternal fire and store away the grain.” ¹⁸ He used many such warnings as he announced the Good News to the people.
