Luke 3
1 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 the region of Ituræa and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
Tiberia Siangpahrang kum hrahlaipanga touh bawi a tawk navah Pontius Pailat teh Judah ram dawk ukkung bawi a tawk. Galilee ram dawk Herod, Iturea hoi Trakhonitis ram dawk Herod e a nawngha Filip, Abilen ram dawk Lisanias telah khobawi lah lengkaleng a tawk awh.
2 in the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
Annas hoi Kaiaphas teh vaihma kacue a tawk roi nah, Cathut e lawk teh kahrawngum kaawm e Zekhariah capa Jawhan koe a pha.
3 And he came into all the region round about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins;
Profet Isaiah e cauk dawk a thut e patetlah kahrawngum hramkhai e lawk teh, Cathut tho nahan lam rasoun awh.
4 as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight.
Lamthungnaw palan awh. Ravonaw paten awh. Karasangnaw hah rahnoum sak awh. Ka lawngkoi e lamthungnaw palan awh.
5 Every valley shall be filled, And every mountain and hill shall be brought low; And the crooked shall become straight, And the rough ways smooth;
Lam kamathoutnaw rasoun awh.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Taminaw pueng ni Cathut e rungngangnae a coe awh han ati e patetlah, Jawhan teh Jordan tui koe a tengpam a kâhlai teh, yon pankângainae Baptisma kong a hramkhai.
7 He said therefore to the multitudes that went out to be baptized of him, Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Hatnavah, tui baptisma ka coe hanelah ka tho e tamihunaw koe, Jawhan ni lawk a dei e teh, tahrun catounnaw ka tho hane lawkcengnae dawk hoi, na hlout thai nahanelah apinimaw kâhruetcuetnae na poe awh vaw.
8 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.
Pankângainae hoi kamcu e hno tarawi awh. Abraham teh maimae na pa telah na lungthung pouk awh hanh. Atangcalah na dei pouh awh. Cathut ni hete talung dawk hoi Abraham e catounnaw a tâco sak thai.
9 And even now the axe also lieth at the root of the trees: every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Thingkung koe cakâ sut pangawi lah ao toung dawkvah, a paw kahawi ka paw hoeh e a kung pueng teh ka tâtueng vaiteh hmai dawk koung ka phum han telah a dei.
10 And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?
Tami kamkhuengnaw ni telah pawiteh kaimouh ni bangtelamaw ka sak awh han telah a pacei awh navah,
11 And he answered and said unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise.
Jawhan ni angki yung hni touh ka tawn e ni ka tawn hoeh e rei naseh. Ca han ka tawn e ni hot patetlah sak van na seh telah bout atipouh.
12 And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Teacher, what must we do?
Tamuk kacawngnaw baptisma coe hanlah a tho awh teh, saya kaimanaw ni bangtelamaw ka sak awh han telah a pacei awh navah,
13 And he said unto them, Extort no more than that which is appointed you.
nangmae na Bawipa ni na cawng sak e a hloilah cawng awh hanh atipouh.
14 And soldiers also asked him, saying, And we, what must we do? And he said unto them, Extort from no man by violence, neither accuse [any one] wrongfully; and be content with your wages.
Ransa thaw katawknaw ni hai kaimouh ni bangtelamaw ka sak awh han telah a pacei awh navah, Jawhan ni apipatet koe hai, ka kamsoum hoeh lahoi tangka lawm awh hanh, het awh hanh awh, na hmu e kutphu dawk na lungkuep awh, telah atipouh.
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether haply he were the Christ;
Taminaw ni a ngaihawi awh teh Jawhan heh Messiah han vaimoe telah a pouk awh.
16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but there cometh he that is mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and [in] fire:
Jawhan ni hai kai ni nangmanaw teh tui dawk doeh baptisma na poe awh. Hatei kai hlak kalen e a tho han. Ahnie khokkhawm rui patenghai rading pouh hane lah ka kamcu hoeh. Ahni ni nangmanaw teh Kathoung Muitha hoi hmai dawkvah Baptisma na poe awh han.
17 whose fan is in his hand, thoroughly to cleanse his threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.
Ahni teh a kut dawk para a patuep teh, katin tangcoung e cakang a hut sak dawkvah, cataknaw teh capai dawk a cui sak vaiteh, cahiknaw teh ka roum thai hoeh e hmai dawk a phum han atipouh.
18 With many other exhortations therefore preached he good tidings unto the people;
Hottelah alouke kamthang kahawi aphunphun lahoi a pâpho pouh.
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,
Hathnukkhu hoi Herod bawi ni a nawngha e a yu Herodias hoi thoseh, amae payonpakainae puenghoi thoseh, Jawhan ni a pâpho pouh teh a yue.
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
Jawhan hah thongim rek a paung dawkvah, Herod teh ahmaloe e yon van hete yonnae hoi rek a kâthap.
21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
Taminaw pueng ni baptisma a coe navah Jisuh hai baptisma a coe teh ratoum lahun navah, kalvan a kamawng teh,
22 and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form, as a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of heaven, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
Kathoung Muitha teh âbakhu patetlah Jisuh van a cu teh, nang teh ka pahren poung e hoi ka lungkuep e capa doeh telah, kalvan lahoi lawk a tho.
23 And Jesus himself, when he began [to teach], was about thirty years of age, being the son (as was supposed) of Joseph, the [son] of Heli,
