6and all flesh will see the salvation of God.'”
7So John said to the crowds who were coming out to be baptized by him, “You offspring of vipers! Who warned you to run away from the wrath that is coming?
8Therefore, produce fruits that are worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father,' for I tell you that God is able to raise up children for Abraham from these stones.
9Even now the ax is set against the root of the trees. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.”
10Then the crowds kept asking him, saying, “What then are we to do?”
11He answered and said to them, “If someone has two tunics, he should share it with a person who has none, and the one having food should do the same.”
12Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what must we do?”
13He said to them, “Do not collect more money than you have been ordered to collect.”
