Mark 1:4-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴ John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness ^[a](A)preaching a baptism of repentance for the ^(B)forgiveness of sins. ⁵ And all the country of Judea was going out to him, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins. ⁶ John was clothed with camel’s hair and wore ^(C)a leather belt around his waist, and ^[b]his diet was locusts and wild honey.
