John 3:20-25
New American Standard Bible

22After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea; and there He was spending time with them and baptizing.
23Now John also was baptizing in Aenon, near Salim, because there was an abundance of water there; and people were coming and being baptized—
24for John had not yet been thrown into prison.
