This begins the account of how Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist.
I need to be baptized by you
"I" refers to John the Baptist and "you" refers to Jesus Christ.
do you come to me?
This is a rhetorical question. Alternative translation: "Since you are not a sinner, you should not come to me and have me baptize you." Note that "you" refers to Jesus Christ and "me" refers to John the Baptist. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
