< 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,
Pa ri roꞌlajuj junabꞌ rech ri utaqanik ri Tiberio César, che riꞌ are taqanel ri Poncio Pilato pa Judea. Ri Herodes are nim taqanel pa Galilea. Ri Felipe rachalal ri Herodes are qꞌatal tzij pa Iturea xuqujeꞌ pa Traconite. Ri Lisanias are qꞌatal tzij pa ri tinimit Abilinia.
2 in the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
Ri Anás rachiꞌl ri Caifás are kinimaꞌqil ri chꞌawenelabꞌ cho ri Dios pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq aꞌj Israel. Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ, ri utzij ri Dios xtaq che ri Juan ri ukꞌojol ri Zacarías, are kꞌo pa ri katzꞌinow ulew.
3 And he came into all the region round about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins;
Ri Juan xbꞌin chunaqaj ri nimaꞌ Jordán, xutzijoj chike ri winaq chi utz kabꞌan kiqasanaꞌ rech kakiqꞌalajisaj chi xkikꞌex kanimaꞌ xuqujeꞌ ketzalij rukꞌ ri Dios, rech kakuyutaj ri kimak.
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.
Ri Isaías xutzijoj la rij ri Juan are xubꞌij: Uchꞌabꞌal jun winaq ri kuraq uchiꞌ pa ri katzꞌinow ulew, kubꞌij: Chisukꞌumaj ri ubꞌe ri Ajawxel, chibꞌana sukꞌum che.
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;
Kenojisax na ri siwan, konojel ri juyubꞌ kuꞌx na leaꞌnik, ri kotokaꞌq taq bꞌe kesukꞌumax na xuqujeꞌ ri abꞌaj taq bꞌe kechꞌajchꞌobꞌex na.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Konojel kakil na ri koltajem ri kutaq loq ri Dios.
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?
Sibꞌalaj kꞌi winaq xoꞌpan rukꞌ ri Juan rech kubꞌan kiqasanaꞌ. Ri Juan xubꞌij chike: Kijaꞌl taq kumatz, ¿jachin xbꞌin chiꞌwe chi kixkwinik kixanimaj choch ri rayowal ri Dios ri kape na?
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.
Qas utz chixnoꞌjinoq rech qas kaqꞌalajinik chi qas xikꞌex ikꞌuꞌx. Man kixkwin ta kꞌut kibꞌij: “Are qatat ri Abraham.” Rumal kinbꞌij chiꞌwe chi ri Dios kakwinik kubꞌano chi kekꞌiy ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Abraham chike we abꞌaj riꞌ.
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.
Ri ikaj xaq yaꞌtal chik rukꞌ ri ukꞌaꞌmalil ri cheꞌ. Ronojel kꞌu cheꞌ ri man kuya ta uwach kaqasax na, xuqujeꞌ kakꞌyaq na bꞌik pa ri qꞌaqꞌ.
10 And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?
Sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq xkibꞌij: ¿Jas rajawaxik kaqabꞌano?
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.
Ri Juan, xubꞌij chike: We kꞌo kebꞌ akamiꞌx, chaya jun rech ri maj rech. We kꞌo awa, chaya ke ri kanumik.
12 And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Teacher, what must we do?
Xuqujeꞌ xoꞌpan ri toqꞌil taq alkabal rech kabꞌan kiqasanaꞌ, xkita che ri Juan: Ajtij, ¿jas rajawaxik kaqabꞌano?
13 And he said unto them, Extort no more than that which is appointed you.
Ri Juan xubꞌij chike: Man kitoqꞌij ta uwiꞌ ri alkabal ri ix taqom chutoqꞌixik.
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.
Ri ajchꞌoꞌjabꞌ chajil tinimit xkibꞌij: ¿Jas rajawaxik kaqabꞌan uj? Ri Juan xubꞌij chike: Man kitoqꞌij ta pwaq chike ri winaq, man kibꞌan ta bꞌanoj tzij chikij ri winaq ri maj kimak, kuꞌl ikꞌuꞌx rukꞌ ri tojbꞌal iwe.
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether haply he were the Christ;
Rumal kꞌu cher ri winaq kayeꞌm ri upetibꞌal ri Mesías are kakaj kaketaꞌmaj we are Mesías ri Juan.
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:
Ri Juan xutzalij uwach ri kꞌotbꞌal chiꞌ xubꞌij: In kinbꞌan iqasanaꞌ rukꞌ jaꞌ, kape kꞌu na jun ri nim reqeleꞌn chinuwach in, man taqal ta chwe kinux jun patanijel, xuqujeꞌ man taqal ta chwe kinkir ri jatꞌibꞌal rech ri uxajabꞌ. Areꞌ kubꞌan iqasanaꞌ rukꞌ ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ qꞌaqꞌ.
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.
Areꞌ xaq rayeꞌm kujosqꞌij ri tiriko, rukꞌ ri uchaꞌbꞌal. Xuqujeꞌ kumulij bꞌik ri utiriko, kuya pa ri utarroz. Kuporoj na ri pajo pa jun qꞌaqꞌ ri maj ukꞌisik.
18 With many other exhortations therefore preached he good tidings unto the people;
Sibꞌalaj kꞌi ri xubꞌan ri Juan chuqꞌalajisaxik chike ri winaq ri utz laj taq tzij.
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,
Ri Juan xuqujeꞌ xuyaj ri Herodes Antipas chikiwach konojel ri winaq rumal xkꞌuliꞌk rukꞌ ri Herodías, rixoqil ri rachalal, je xuqujeꞌ rumal kꞌi itzel taq jastaq ri ubꞌanom,
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
rumal riꞌ ri Herodes xukoj ri Juan pa cheꞌ, xnimar ri umak.
21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
Jun qꞌijal, ri Juan are tajin kubꞌan kiqasanaꞌ e kꞌi winaq, xubꞌan uqasanaꞌ ri Jesús. Are tajin kubꞌan chꞌawem ri Jesús xjaqataj ri kaj.
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.
Xilitaj kꞌut xqaj loq ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel puꞌwiꞌ ri Jesús jeꞌ jas jun palomax. Xtataj xuqujeꞌ jun chꞌabꞌal pa ri kaj ri kubꞌij: At at loqꞌalaj nukꞌojol, sibꞌalaj kaya kiꞌkotem chwe.
