Luka 3
1 Qeysər Tiberinin hakimiyyətinin on beşinci ili idi. O dövrdə Ponti Pilat Yəhudeyanın valisi idi. Hirod Qalileyada, qardaşı Filip İtureya və Traxonitis bölgəsində, Lisaniya Abileniyada hökmranlıq edirdi.
Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cæsar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judæa, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
2 Xananla Qayafa baş kahin idi. O vaxt çöldə Zəkəriyyənin oğlu Yəhyaya Allahın kəlamı nazil oldu.
Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 O da İordan çayının ətrafındakı bütün bölgəni dolaşaraq insanların öz günahlarının bağışlanması üçün tövbə edib vəftiz olunmasını vəz edirdi.
And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
4 Necə ki Yeşaya peyğəmbərin kitabında yazılıb: «Səhrada nida edənin səsi gəlir: “Rəbbin yolunu hazırlayın, Onun keçəcəyi yerləri düz edin.
As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
5 Hər dərə yüksəldiləcək, Hər dağ və təpə aşağı endiriləcək, Yoldakı əyriliklər düzələcək, Kələ-kötür yerlər hamar ediləcək.
Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways [shall be] made smooth;
6 Bütün bəşər Allahın xilasını görəcək”».
And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Yəhya vəftiz olunmaq üçün yanına gələn camaata deyirdi: «Ey gürzələr nəsli! Üzərinizə gələcək qəzəbdən canınızı qurtarmağı sizin beyninizə kim yeridib?
Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 İndi isə tövbəyə layiq bəhrələr verin. Ürəyinizdə “atamız İbrahimdir” deməyə başlamayın. Mən sizə deyirəm ki, Allah bu daşlardan İbrahimə övlad yaratmağa qadirdir.
Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to [our] father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
9 Artıq balta ağacların dibində yatır. Beləliklə, yaxşı bəhrə verməyən hər ağac kəsilir və oda atılır».
And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10 Camaat ondan soruşurdu: «Bəs biz nə edək?»
And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
11 Yəhya onlara belə cavab verdi: «İki köynəyi olan birini köynəyi olmayana versin. Həmçinin yeməyi olan adam da olmayanla bölüşsün».
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 Vergiyığanlar da vəftiz olunmaq üçün onun yanına gəlib soruşdular: «Müəllim, biz nə edək?»
Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
13 Yəhya onlara dedi: «Sizə tapşırılan məbləğdən artıq vergi yığmayın».
And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
14 Bəzi əsgərlər də gəlib ondan soruşdular: «Bəs biz nə etməliyik?» Yəhya da onlara cavab verdi: «Heç kimdən zorla pul almayın, nahaq yerə ittiham etməyin, aldığınız maaşla kifayətlənin».
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.
15 Xalq ümidlə gözləyirdi və hamı ürəyində Yəhya haqqında öz-özündən soruşurdu: «Görəsən bu, Məsihdirmi?»
And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
16 Yəhya onların hamısına belə cavab verdi: «Mən sizi su ilə vəftiz edirəm, amma məndən daha Qüdrətlisi gəlir. Mən Onun çarıqlarının bağını açmağa belə, layiq deyiləm. O sizi Müqəddəs Ruhla və odla vəftiz edəcək.
John answered, saying unto [them] all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
17 Öz xırmanını sovurmaq və taxılı anbarına toplamaq üçün kürəyi əlində hazırdır. Küləşi isə sönməz odda yandıracaq».
Whose fan [is] in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
18 Yəhya çoxlu başqa öyüd-nəsihət verərək xalqa Müjdəni vəz edirdi.
And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.
19 Amma Yəhya hökmdar Hirodu qardaşı arvadı Hirodiyanı aldığına və etdiyi hər cür pis işlərə görə məzəmmət etdikdə
But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
20 Hirod etdiyi bütün pis işlərə bunu da əlavə edərək Yəhyanı zindana saldırdı.
Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Bütün xalq vəftiz olunanda İsa da vəftiz olundu. O dua edərkən göy yarıldı,
Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 Müqəddəs Ruh bədəncə göyərçin şəklində Onun üzərinə endi. Göydən bir səda gəldi: «Sən Mənim sevimli Oğlumsan, Səndən razıyam».
And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
