Luke 3:10-14 King James Version (KJV)
10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.

10 “What then should we do?” the crowds were asking him.
11 He replied to them, “The one who has two shirts must share with someone who has none, and the one who has food must do the same.”
12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they asked him, “Teacher, what should we do?”
13 He told them, “Don’t collect any more than what you have been authorized.”
14 Some soldiers also questioned him: “What should we do?”
He said to them, “Don’t take money from anyone by force or false accusation; be satisfied with your wages.”

10 John was a prophet the people were asking him because they wanted to know what God wanted them to do, they respected John as a prophet of God.
11 Being generous is something the Lord wants us to do; He wants us to help our brothers,
12 Baptism was something that was first done as a purifying method, now it is an act of showing God has purified us. They viewed John as a teacher called from God because they asked him about matter of God.
13 Tax collectors often times over collected taxes, they took much more than what was needed so they could be rich, the Romans only cared that they got was owed but they could take whatever they wanted.
14 Soldiers also did whatever they wanted because of their authority they could get away with things and take and do what they wanted.
