New Testament

Mark 1:8-13 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

9. About that time, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and John baptized him in the Jordan River.

10. While he was coming up out of the water, Jesus saw heaven splitting open and the Spirit, like a dove, coming down on him.

11. And there was a voice from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I dearly love; in you I find happiness."

12. At once the Spirit forced Jesus out into the wilderness.

13. He was in the wilderness for forty days, tempted by Satan. He was among the wild animals, and the angels took care of him.
