11 “As for me, ^cI baptize you ^{▼▼The Gr here can be translated in, with, or by}with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; ^eHe will baptize you ^{▼▼The Gr here can be translated in, with, or by}with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His ^gwinnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will ^hgather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the ⁱchaff with ^junquenchable fire.”
