10 And were asking him the crowds saying; What then (shall we do? *N+kO)
And the crowds asked him saying, What should we do then?
11 Answering now (he was saying *N+kO) to them; The [one] having two tunics he should impart to the [one] none having and the [one] having food likewise he should do.

But as the people were in expectation, and all were reasoning in their hearts concerning John whether he might be the Christ,

John answered all, saying, I indeed baptise you with water, but the mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not fit to unloose; he shall baptise you with [the] Holy Spirit and fire;
17 of whom the winnowing fork [is] in the hand of Him (and *k) (to scour *N+kO) the threshing floor of Him and (to gather *N+kO) the wheat into the barn of Him. But the chaff He will burn up with fire unquenchable.
whose winnowing-fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his threshing-floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner, but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

21 It came to pass now in baptizing all the people and when Jesus having been baptized and having prayed [was] opening the heaven
And it came to pass, all the people having been baptised, and Jesus having been baptised and praying, that the heaven was opened,
