Luke 3:7-14

Therefore, he said to the crowd that went out in order to be baptized by him: "You progeny of vipers! Who told you to flee from the approaching wrath? So then, produce fruits worthy of repentance. And do not begin to say, 'We have Abraham as our father.' For I tell you that God has the power to raise up sons to Abraham from these stones. For even now the axe has been placed at the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree that does not produce good fruit shall be cut down and cast into the fire." And the crowed was questioning him, saying, "What then should we do?" But in response, he said to them: "Whoever has two coats, let him give to those who do not have. And whoever has food, let him act similarly." Now the tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what should we do?" But he said to them, "You should do nothing more than what has been appointed to you." Then the soldiers also questioned him, saying, "And what should we do?" And he said to them: "You should strike no one, and you should not make false accusations. And be content with your pay."
