16 John answered them all,l “I baptize you with water, but one who is more powerful than I am is coming. I am not worthy to untie the strap of his sandals. He will baptize you withC the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His winnowing shovelm is in his hand to clear his threshing floor and gather the wheat into his barn,n but the chaff he will burn with fire that never goes out.”o
