Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
anantaraṁ tibiriyakaisarasya rājatvasya pañcadaśē vatsarē sati yadā pantīyapīlātō yihūdādēśādhipati rhērōd tu gālīlpradēśasya rājā philipanāmā tasya bhrātā tu yitūriyāyāstrākhōnītiyāpradēśasya ca rājāsīt luṣānīyanāmā avilīnīdēśasya rājāsīt
2 during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness.
hānan kiyaphāścēmau pradhānayājākāvāstāṁ tadānīṁ sikhariyasya putrāya yōhanē madhyēprāntaram īśvarasya vākyē prakāśitē sati
3 He came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for remission of sins.
sa yarddana ubhayataṭapradēśān samētya pāpamōcanārthaṁ manaḥparāvarttanasya cihnarūpaṁ yanmajjanaṁ tadīyāḥ kathāḥ sarvvatra pracārayitumārēbhē|
4 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.
yiśayiyabhaviṣyadvaktr̥granthē yādr̥śī lipirāstē yathā, paramēśasya panthānaṁ pariṣkuruta sarvvataḥ| tasya rājapathañcaiva samānaṁ kurutādhunā|
5 Every valley will be filled. Every mountain and hill will be brought low. The crooked will become straight, and the rough ways smooth.
kāriṣyantē samucchrāyāḥ sakalā nimnabhūmayaḥ| kāriṣyantē natāḥ sarvvē parvvatāścōpaparvvatāḥ| kāriṣyantē ca yā vakrāstāḥ sarvvāḥ saralā bhuvaḥ| kāriṣyantē samānāstā yā uccanīcabhūmayaḥ|
6 All flesh will see God’s salvation.’”
īśvarēṇa kr̥taṁ trāṇaṁ drakṣyanti sarvvamānavāḥ| ityētat prāntarē vākyaṁ vadataḥ kasyacid ravaḥ||
7 He said therefore to the multitudes who went out to be baptized by him, “You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
yē yē lōkā majjanārthaṁ bahirāyayustān sōvadat rē rē sarpavaṁśā āgāminaḥ kōpāt palāyituṁ yuṣmān kaścētayāmāsa?
8 Therefore produce fruits worthy of repentance, and don’t begin to say among yourselves, ‘We have Abraham for our father;’ for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones!
tasmād ibrāhīm asmākaṁ pitā kathāmīdr̥śīṁ manōbhi rna kathayitvā yūyaṁ manaḥparivarttanayōgyaṁ phalaṁ phalata; yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi pāṣāṇēbhya ētēbhya īśvara ibrāhīmaḥ santānōtpādanē samarthaḥ|
9 Even now the ax also lies at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that doesn’t produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”
aparañca tarumūlē'dhunāpi paraśuḥ saṁlagnōsti yastaruruttamaṁ phalaṁ na phalati sa chidyatē'gnau nikṣipyatē ca|
10 The multitudes asked him, “What then must we do?”
tadānīṁ lōkāstaṁ papracchustarhi kiṁ karttavyamasmābhiḥ?
11 He answered them, “He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. He who has food, let him do likewise.”
tataḥ sōvādīt yasya dvē vasanē vidyētē sa vastrahīnāyaikaṁ vitaratu kiṁñca yasya khādyadravyaṁ vidyatē sōpi tathaiva karōtu|
12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what must we do?”
tataḥ paraṁ karasañcāyinō majjanārtham āgatya papracchuḥ hē gurō kiṁ karttavyamasmābhiḥ?
13 He said to them, “Collect no more than that which is appointed to you.”
tataḥ sōkathayat nirūpitādadhikaṁ na gr̥hlita|
14 Soldiers also asked him, saying, “What about us? What must we do?” He said to them, “Extort from no one by violence, neither accuse anyone wrongfully. Be content with your wages.”
anantaraṁ sēnāgaṇa ētya papraccha kimasmābhi rvā karttavyam? tataḥ sōbhidadhē kasya kāmapi hāniṁ mā kārṣṭa tathā mr̥ṣāpavādaṁ mā kuruta nijavētanēna ca santuṣya tiṣṭhata|
15 As the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether perhaps he was the Christ,
aparañca lōkā apēkṣayā sthitvā sarvvēpīti manōbhi rvitarkayāñcakruḥ, yōhanayam abhiṣiktastrātā na vēti?
16 John answered them all, “I indeed baptize you with water, but he comes who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to loosen. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and fire.
tadā yōhan sarvvān vyājahāra, jalē'haṁ yuṣmān majjayāmi satyaṁ kintu yasya pādukābandhanaṁ mōcayitumapi na yōgyōsmi tādr̥śa ēkō mattō gurutaraḥ pumān ēti, sa yuṣmān vahnirūpē pavitra ātmani majjayiṣyati|
17 His winnowing fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing floor, and will gather the wheat into his barn; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
aparañca tasya hastē śūrpa āstē sa svaśasyāni śuddharūpaṁ prasphōṭya gōdhūmān sarvvān bhāṇḍāgārē saṁgrahīṣyati kintu būṣāṇi sarvvāṇyanirvvāṇavahninā dāhayiṣyati|
18 Then with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people,
yōhan upadēśēnētthaṁ nānākathā lōkānāṁ samakṣaṁ pracārayāmāsa|
19 but Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done,
aparañca hērōd rājā philipnāmnaḥ sahōdarasya bhāryyāṁ hērōdiyāmadhi tathānyāni yāni yāni kukarmmāṇi kr̥tavān tadadhi ca
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
yōhanā tiraskr̥tō bhūtvā kārāgārē tasya bandhanād aparamapi kukarmma cakāra|
21 Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus also had been baptized and was praying. The sky was opened,
itaḥ pūrvvaṁ yasmin samayē sarvvē yōhanā majjitāstadānīṁ yīśurapyāgatya majjitaḥ|
22 and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form like a dove on him; and a voice came out of the sky, saying “You are my beloved Son. In you I am well pleased.”
tadanantaraṁ tēna prārthitē mēghadvāraṁ muktaṁ tasmācca pavitra ātmā mūrttimān bhūtvā kapōtavat taduparyyavarurōha; tadā tvaṁ mama priyaḥ putrastvayi mama paramaḥ santōṣa ityākāśavāṇī babhūva|
