Luke 3:13-15

New International Reader's Version

¹³ “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,” John told them.

¹⁴ Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?”

John replied, “Don’t force people to give you money. Don’t bring false charges against people. Be happy with your pay.”

¹⁵ The people were waiting. They were expecting something. They were all wondering in their hearts if John might be the Messiah.
