< 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,
Caesar Tiberius-na panba chahi taramangasuba chahida Pontius Pilate-na Judea-gi leingak mapu, Herodna Galilee-gi leingakpa amasung manaonupa Philipna Iturea amadi Trachonitis-ki leingakpa; Lysanias-na Abilene-gi leingakpa,
2 in the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
Amasung Annas amadi Caiaphas-na athoiba purohitlen oiringeida lamjao-lamhangda leiriba Zechariah-gi machanupa John-gi maphamda Tengban Mapuna wa ngangbirammi.
3 And he came into all the region round about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins;
Maram aduna pap kokchanabagidamak pukning hongbagi baptize lounabagi pao miyamda sandoktuna John-na Jordan turelgi akoibada leiba lam pumnamakta chatlammi.
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.
Masi Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichou Isaiah-gi lairikta ikhibagumbani: “Kanagumba amana lamjao-lamhangda laori: ‘MAPU IBUNGO-gi lambi thourang tou; Ibungona chatnaba lambi chumhallu!
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;
Tampak khudingmak thongatkani, Ching amadi chingjao khudingmakpu temthokkani. Akhoiba lambisingbu chumhangani, Akut atong leiba lambisingbu nalhangani.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Aduga mi pumnamakna Tengban Mapugi aran-khubham uba phangjagani.’”
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?
Adudagi mangonda baptize touhannaba lakliba miyam aduda John-na hairak-i, “He lilgi chada naodasa, lakkadouriba Tengban Mapugi asaoba adudagi chennaba nakhoida kanana haibage?
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.
Nakhoina paptagi pukning hongbagi matik chaba mahei yallu. Aduga ‘Eikhoigi ipa Abraham lei’ haina nakhoigi napukningda haijaganu. Maramdi, eina nakhoida hairi madudi nungsing asidagisu Tengban Mapuna Abraham-gi machasing thokhanba ngammi.
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.
Houjiksu upalsing asigi maruda singjang thaduna lei amasung aphaba mahei pandaba upal pumnamakpu kakthattuna meinungda langsingani.”
10 And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?
Maduda miyam aduna John-da hanglak-i, “Adu oirabadi eikhoina kari tougadage?”
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.
Mahakna makhoida khumlak-i, “Phurit ani leiba mahak aduna amata phaoba leijadaba mahak aduda ama pisanu aduga chananaba chinjak leiba mahak adunasu matou adugumna tousanu.”
12 And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Teacher, what must we do?
Adudagi kanggat khomba kharasu baptize lounaba laklammi amasung makhoina Johnda hanglak-i, “Oja Ibungo, Eikhoina kari tougadage?”
13 And he said unto them, Extort no more than that which is appointed you.
Mahakna makhoida khumlak-i, “Loupham thokpa adudagi henna nakhoina louganu.”
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.
Adudagi lanmi kharanasu mangonda hanglak-i, “Aduga eikhoinadi kari tougadage?” Mahakna makhoida khumlak-i, “Mi kanadagisu nam-haduna sel louganu aduga kanadasu aranba maral thangjinganu. Amasung nanggi nanggi asuman aduda apenba oiyu.”
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether haply he were the Christ;
Aduga mi pumnamakna Christtana lakkadaba adu ngaiduna leiba maramna John-bu Christta adu oigadara haina makhoigi thamoinungda hangjarammi.
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:
Maram aduna John-na makhoi pumnamakta hairak-i, “Einadi nakhoibu isingda baptize toubi, adubu eingondagi henna matik leiba kanagumba ama lenglakli aduga eidi Ibungo magi sandal mari louthokpa phaoba matik chade. Mahaknadi nakhoibu Thawai Asengbada amasung meida baptize toubigani.
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.
Ibungona mahei marong yeipham adu sengdoktuna gehusing adubu keida peisinnaba makhutta mahakki phou-inthok paiduna leiri; adubu mahakna mahamsing adubudi mutpa naidaba meida thajingani.”
18 With many other exhortations therefore preached he good tidings unto the people;
Aduga John-na khetnaba mawong matou kaya amada mising aduda Aphaba Pao sandoklammi amasung makhoigi lambi adu hongdoknaba thougatlammi.
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,
Adubu mahakna Galilee-gi leingakpa Herod-pu manaonupa Philip-ki nupi Herodias-pu loubagidamak amasung mahakna toukhiba phattaba thabak pumnamak adugidamak cheirammi.
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
Aduga Herod-na John-bu keisumsangda thamjinduna amukka henna tamthiba pap langsinjarammi.
21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
Nongma John-na miyam amabu baptize touringei matamda Jisubusu baptize tourammi. Aduga Ibungona haijaringeida swarga hangdoktuna,
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.
Thawai Asengbana hakchang oina khunugi mawongda Ibungogi mathakta lengtharaklammi. Aduga swargadagi khonjel amana hairak-i, “Nahak eigi nungsijaraba Ichanupani, eina nangonda yamna pelle.”
