Lukas 3
1 Men i Kejser Tiberius's femtende Regeringsaar, da Pontius Pilatus var Landshøvding i Judæa, og Herodes var Fjerdingsfyrste i Galilæa, og hans Broder Filip var Fjerdingsfyrste i Ituræa og Trakonitis's Land og Lysanias Fjerdingsfyrste i Abilene,
Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar [Ruler], Pontius Pilate [Armed with javelin] being governor of Judea [Praise], and Herod [Heroic] being tetrarch (one of four co-emperors) of Galilee [District, Circuit], and his brother Philip [Loves horses] tetrarch (one of four co-emperors) of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch (one of four co-emperors) of Abilene,
2 medens Annas og Kajfas vare Ypperstepræster, kom Guds Ord til Johannes, Sakarias's Søn, i Ørkenen.
in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas [Rock that hollows itself out], ha D'var Elohim · the Word of God· came to John [Yah is gracious], the son of Zacharias [Remembered by Yah], in the wilderness.
3 Og han gik ud i hele Omegnen om Jordan og prædikede Omvendelses-Daab til Syndernes Forladelse,
He came into all the region around the Jordan [Descender], preaching the baptism of teshuvah ·complete repentance· for remission of sins.
4 som der er skrevet i Profeten Esajas's Talers Bog: „Der er en Røst af en, som raaber i Ørkenen: Bereder Herrens Vej, gører hans Stier jævne;
As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] the prophet, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of MarYah [Master Yahweh]. Make his paths straight.
5 hver Dal skal opfyldes, og hvert Bjerg og Høj skal nedtrykkes, og det krumme skal gøres lige, og de ujævne Veje skulle gøres jævne;
Every valley will be filled. Every mountain and hill will be brought low. The crooked will become straight, and the rough ways smooth.
6 og alt Kød skal se Guds Frelse.‟
Then all humanity will see God’s method of deliverance.’”
7 Han sagde altsaa til de Skarer, som gik ud for at døbes af ham: „I Øgleunger! hvem har lært eder at fly fra den kommende Vrede?
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?
8 Bærer da Frugter, som ere Omvendelsen værdige, og begynder ikke at sige ved eder selv: Vi have Abraham til Fader; thi jeg siger eder, at Gud kan opvække Abraham Børn af disse Stene.
Therefore produce fruits worthy of teshuvah ·complete repentance·, and don’t begin to say among yourselves, ‘We have Abraham [Father of a multitude] Avinu ·our Father·;’ for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham [Father of a multitude] from these stones!
9 Men Øksen ligger ogsaa allerede ved Roden af Træerne; saa bliver da hvert Træ, som ikke bærer god Frugt, omhugget og kastet i Ilden.‟
Even now the ax also lies at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not produce good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.”
10 Og Skarerne spurgte ham og sagde: „Hvad skulle vi da gøre?‟
The multitudes asked him, “What then must we do?”
11 Men han svarede og sagde til dem: „Den, som har to Kjortler, dele med den, som ingen har; og den, som har Mad, gøre ligesaa!‟
He answered them, “He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. He who has food, let him do likewise.”
12 Men ogsaa Toldere kom for at døbes, og de sagde til ham: „Mester! hvad skulle vi gøre?‟
Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what must we do?”
13 Men han sagde til dem: „Kræver intet ud over, hvad eder er forordnet.‟
He said to them, “Collect no more than that which is appointed to you.”
14 Men ogsaa Krigsfolk spurgte ham og sagde: „Hvad skulle vi da gøre?‟ Og han sagde til dem: „Øver ikke Vold imod nogen, bruger ikke Underfundighed imod nogen, og lader eder nøje med eders Sold!‟
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.”
15 Men da Folket var i Forventning, og alle tænkte i deres Hjerter om Johannes, om ikke han skulde være Kristus,
As the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John [Yah is gracious], whether perhaps he was the Messiah [Anointed one],
16 da svarede Johannes og sagde til alle: „Jeg døber eder med Vand; men den kommer, som er stærkere end jeg, og hvis Skotvinge jeg ikke er værdig at løse; han skal døbe eder med den Helligaand og Ild.
John [Yah is gracious] 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 Ruach haKodesh [Spirit of the Holiness] and fire,
17 Hans Kasteskovl er i hans Haand, for at han skal gennemrense sin Lo og sanke Hveden i sin Lade, men Avnerne skal han opbrænde med uslukkelig Ild.‟
whose 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.”
18 Ligesaa formanede han ogsaa Folket om mange andre Ting og forkyndte dem Evangeliet.
Then with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people,
19 Men da Fjerdingsfyrsten Herodes blev revset af ham for hans Broders Hustru, Herodias's Skyld og for alt det onde, som Herodes gjorde,
but Herod [Heroic] the tetrarch (one of four co-emperors), being reproved by him for Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for all the evil things which Herod [Heroic] had done,
20 saa føjede han til alt det øvrige ogsaa dette, at han kastede Johannes i Fængsel.
added this also to them all, that he shut up John [Yah is gracious] in prison.
21 Men medens hele Folket blev døbt, skete det, da ogsaa Jesus var bleven døbt og bad, at Himmelen aabnedes,
Now when all the people were baptized, Yeshua [Salvation] also had been baptized, and was praying. The sky was opened,
22 og at den Helligaand dalede ned over ham i legemlig Skikkelse som en Due, og at en Røst lød fra Himmelen: „Du er min Søn, den elskede, i dig har jeg Velbehag.‟
and Ruach haKodesh [Spirit of the Holiness] descended in a bodily form like a dove on him; and a voice came out of the sky, saying “You are my agapetos ·beloved, esteemed· Son. In you I am well pleased.”
