Lucas 3
1 Y andré a berji pansch-decima e imperio de Tiberio Cæsar, sinando Poncio Pilato Chino baro de Judea, y Herodes Tetrarchâ de Galiléa, y desquero plano Philipo Tetrarchâ de Ituréa, y e chim de Trachônite, y Lysanias Tetrarchâ de Abilina,
When the Emperor Tiberius had been ruling [the Roman Empire] for 15 years, and while Pontius Pilate was the governor of Judea [district], and Herod [Antipas] was ruling Galilee [district], and his brother Philip was ruling Iturea and Trachonitis [districts], and Lysanius was ruling Abilene [district],
2 Sinando Manclayes es erajais Annás y Caiphas, abilló a varda e Erañoró opré Juan, chaboro de Zacharias, andré o desierto.
and while Annas and Caiaphas were the high priests [in Jerusalem], God gave messages to Zechariah’s son John while he was living in the desolate region.
3 Y abilló por saro o chim de Jordan garlando o muchobelar de penitencia somia mecos de grecos,
[So] John went all over the area close to the Jordan [River]. He kept telling people, “If you want [God] to forgive you for your sins, you must (repent/turn away from your sinful behavior) [before you ask me] to baptize [you]!”
4 Sasta sinela randado andré o embéo de las vardas de Isaias Propheta: Gole de yeque garlando andré ó desierto: Aparejad o drun e Erañoró, Querelad bustarias as sendas de ó.
John was the one who [fulfilled] these words that had [been written] by the prophet Isaiah {that the prophet Isaiah had written} on a scroll [long ago]: In a desolate area, someone [SYN] will be heard shouting [to the people who pass by], “Prepare yourselves [to receive] the Lord when he comes! [Make yourselves ready so that you will be prepared when he comes], [just like people] straighten out the road [MET] [for an important official] [MET, DOU]!
5 Saro butron se perelará; y saro bur y plai se pejerá: y o torcido sinará enderezado: y os drunes fragosos allanados:
[Just like people] level off all the places where the land rises and [just like they] fill all the ravines, and [just like people] make the road straight wherever it is crooked, and [just like people] make smooth the bumps in the road, [similarly you need to remove all the obstacles which prevent God from blessing you]!
6 Y dicará sari maas a golipen de Debél.
Then people [SYN] everywhere will understand how God can save [MTY] [people].”
7 Y penó á os manuces, que abillaban somia que los muchobelase: ¿Rati de birbirechas, coin penó á sangue á najar de la ira que ha de abillar?
Although large groups of people came to John to be baptized {in order that he would baptize them}, [he knew that many of them were not sincere]. So he kept saying to them, “You [people are evil] [MET] [like] poisonous snakes! [I] warn you that [God] will some day punish [MTY] [everyone] who sins. And (do not think that you can escape [from his punishing] [MTY] [you if you do not turn from your sinful behavior!/did someone tell you] that you can escape [from his punishing] [MTY] [you if you do not turn from your sinful behavior]?) [RHQ] (OR, Who told you that you could escape [God’s punishment?])
8 Querelad pues mibao cabalico de penitencia, y na os chitelais penar: Terelamos por batu á Abraham. Porque sangue penelo, que astisarela Debél de oconas barendañías ardiñar chabores á Abraham.
Do what is appropriate for people who have truly turned from their sinful behavior! [God promised to give Abraham many] descendants. In order to fulfill that promise, God does not need you! I tell you that he can change these stones to make them descendants of Abraham! So do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We [(exc)] are descendants of Abraham, [so God will not punish us, even though we have] sinned!’
9 Presas acana sinela chibada a tescharí á la raiz es carschtas, pues sari carschta, sos na diñele mibao lacho, sinará velada, y chibada andré a yacque.
[God is ready to punish you if you do not turn away from your sinful behavior, just like a man] [MET] lays his axe at the roots [of a fruit] tree [to chop it down and throw it into the fire if it does not produce good fruit] [MET].”
10 Y le puchababan os manuces, y penaban! ¿Pues qué querelaremos?
[Then] various ones in the crowd asked John, “What shall we [(exc)] do [to escape God punishing us] (OR), [to show that we have repented]?”
11 Y rudelando les penaba: O manu sos terela duis coneles, díñele al manu sos na terela: y o sos terela que jamar, querele o matejo.
He answered them, “If any of you has two shirts, you should give one of them to someone who has no shirt. If any of you has [plenty of] food, you should give some to those who have no food.”
12 Y abilláron tambien á ó os Publicanes, somia que os muchobelase, y le penáron: ¿Duquendio, qué querelaremos?
[Some] tax collectors came [and asked] to be baptized ([asked him] to baptize them}. They asked him, “Teacher, what shall we [(exc)] do [to please God]?”
13 Y ó les penó: Na ustileis butér de ma os sinela penado.
He said to them, “Do not take from the people any more money than [the Roman government] tells you to take!”
14 Le puchababan tambien os jundunares, penando: ¿Y mu qué querelaremos? Y les penó: Na queraleis choro á cayque, ni le mareleis, y sineleis lacho sat jiré jayere.
Some soldiers asked him, “What about us? What should we [(exc)] do [to please God]?” He said to them, “Do not [say to anyone], ‘[If you(sg) do not give me] some money, I will hurt you,’ and do not take [people to court and] falsely accuse them of doing something wrong! And be content with your wages.”
15 Y sasta os manuces creyesen, y os sares penchabasen andré desqueres carlochines, si por ventura Juan sinaba o Christo:
People were expecting [that the Messiah would come soon]. Because of that, many of them wondered about John. [Some of them asked him] if he was the Messiah.
16 Rudeló Juan, y penó á os sares: Menda aromali muchobelo sangue andré paní: Tami abillará avér butér silnó que menda, de coin na sinelo cabalico de despandar a correa de desqueres tirajais: ocola muchobelará sangue andré Peniche, y yaque:
John replied to them all, “No, [I am not]. I used [only] water when I baptized you. But [the Messiah] will soon come! He is far greater than I am. [He is so great that] I am not worthy to [be like his slave and] untie his sandals [MET] [like] a slave would do! He will put [his] Holy Spirit within [MTY] you [to truly change your lives], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [MET] [in hell]. (questioned)
17 De coin o bieldo sinela andré su baste; y alimpiará desquero era, y chibará ó gi andré su malabai, y la pus jachará sat yaque, que na se bedela.
He [is like a man] [MET] [who wants to] clear away the grain on the ground where it has been threshed {they have threshed it}. That man [uses] a huge fork [to throw the grain into the air] to separate the wheat from the chaff [MET], and then he cleans up the threshing area. [Similarly, God] will [separate righteous people from the evil people, like a man who] gathers the wheat into his storage area, and then he will burn [those who are like] chaff with a fire (that will never be put out/that will burn forever).”
18 Y andiar anunciaba averias baribustrias buchias á la sueti andré sus exhortaciones.
John kept telling people many things to urge them [to turn to God], as he told them the good message [from God].
19 Tami Herodes ó Tetrarchâ; sinando reprehendido por ó á causa de Herodias romi de sun planó, y de sarias as buchias chorias que Herodes habia querdi,
He also rebuked [the ruler of the district], Herod [Antipas. He rebuked him] for [marrying] Herodias, his brother’s wife, [while his brother was still alive], and for doing many other evil things.
20 Anadio á sares tambien ocona de querelar pandar a Juan andré la estaripel.
But Herod [had his soldiers] put John in prison. That was another evil thing he did.
21 Y anacó, que sasta sari a sueti ustilase o muchobelar, tambien sinaba muchobelado Jesus; y sinando ó manguelando á Debél, se despandó o Tarpe:
[But before John was put in prison], when many people were being baptized {when he was baptizing many people}, after Jesus was baptized {he baptized Jesus} and Jesus was praying, the sky opened.
22 Y pejó ostely opre ó el Peniche andré trupo, sasta gobaró: y se juneló ocono gole del Tarpe: Tucue sinelas minrió Chaboro camelado; andré tucue menda me alendelo.
Then the Holy Spirit, resembling a dove, descended upon [Jesus]. And [God] [SYN/EUP] spoke to Jesus from heaven, saying, “You [(sg)] are my Son, whom I love dearly. I am very pleased with you!”
