2 It was at the time when Annas and Caiaphas were chief priests that God spoke to John, son of Zechariah, in the desert. 3 John traveled throughout the region around the Jordan River. He told people about a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 4 As the prophet Isaiah wrote in his book, |A voice cries out in the desert: 'Prepare the way for the Lord! Make his paths straight! 5 Every valley will be filled. Every mountain and hill will be leveled. The crooked ways will be made straight. The rough roads will be made smooth. 6 All people will see the salvation that God gives.'| Luke 3:2-6, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
