Matthew 3
1 Now in those days comes John the baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,
Amo esoga, Yone Ba: bodaise da misini, Yudia hafoga: i soge ganodini, Gode Ea sia: olelesu.
2 and saying, Repent, for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn nigh.
E amane sia: i, “Wadela: i hou yolesili, Godema sinidigima! Gode Ea Hinadafa Hou da doaga: mu gadenei galebe!”
3 For this is he who has been spoken of through Esaias the prophet, saying, Voice of him that crieth in the wilderness: prepare ye the way of [the] Lord, make straight his paths.
Amo dunu ea hou, musa: balofede dunu Aisaia da agoane olelei, “Dunu afae da wadela: i hafoga: i soge ganodini agoane wele sia: nana, ‘Hinadafa misa: ne, dilia hou logo agoane hahamoma! Dilia Ea logo huluane molole fodoma!’
4 And John himself had his garment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins, and his nourishment was locusts and wild honey.
Yone ea abula da ga: mele ea hinaboga amuni. E da bulamagau gadofo banene idiniginisi. Ea ha: i manu da sage amola agime hano nasu.
5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the country round the Jordan,
Yelusaleme fi, Yudia fi amola Yodane Hano soge fi huluane da ea sia: nabimusa: , ema doaga: i.
6 and were baptised by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.
Ilia da ilia wadela: i hou fofada: i dagoi. Amalalu, Yone da ili Yodane hanoga fane salasu.
7 But seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, Offspring of vipers, who has forewarned you to flee from the coming wrath?
Be Fa: lisi amola Sa: diusi dunu bagohame da ea hanoga fane salasu lamusa: doaga: loba, Yone da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia wadela: i sania fi dunu! Nowa da dilia Gode Ea ougi se iasu amoga hobeamu olelebela: ?
8 Produce therefore fruit worthy of repentance.
“Dilia Godema sinidigisu hou amo defele, Gode Ea hou dulu agoane legema!
9 And do not think to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for [our] father; for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
Dilia dogo ganodini, ‘Ninia ada da A: ibalaha: me! Amaiba: le, ninia da Gode Ea se iasu hame ba: mu!’ agoane mae sia: ma. Na da dilima dafawane sia: sa! Gode da amo igi afadenene bu A: ibalaha: me ea mano eno ili hahamomu, Gode da defele esala.
10 And already the axe is applied to the root of the trees; every tree therefore not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
Wali Gode da ifa ea difi goaheiga hedofamusa: momagei diala. Ifa da dulu ida: iwane hame legesea, E da amo ifa abawane nema: ne ha: digimu.
11 I indeed baptise you with water to repentance, but he that comes after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not fit to bear; he shall baptise you with [the] Holy Spirit and fire;
Na da dili Godema sinidigiba: le, hanoga fane sala. Be fa: no mabe dunu eno da na gasa bagade baligi. Na da Ea emo salasu amo gaguli masunu defele hame galebe. E da Gode Ea A: silibu amola lalu amoga dili ba: bodaise hou hamomu.
12 whose winnowing fan [is] in his hand, and he shall thoroughly purge his threshing-floor, and shall gather his wheat into the garner, but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
Amo dunu Ea lobo ganodini Ea widi dabasu gagui gala. E da widi ha: i manu dulu amola gisi afafamu. E da ha: i manu amo Ea diasu ganodini salimu. Be E da gisi lalu mae usili nenanebe amoga gobele salimu!”
13 Then comes Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptised of him;
Amalalu, Yesu da Ga: lili soge yolesili Yodane sogega doaga: i. Yone da E hanoa fane salima: ne, E sia: i.
14 but John urgently forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptised of thee; and comest thou to me?
Be Yone amane sia: i, “Hamedei! Dia na fane salasimu da defea. Di abuli nama misibala: ?”
15 But Jesus answering said to him, Suffer [it] now; for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffers him.
Be Yesu E bu adole i, “Wali hamomu da defea. Ninia Gode Ea ilegele sia: i liligi huluane hamomu da defea,” Amalalu, Yone da Yesu hanoga fane salasi.
16 And Jesus, having been baptised, went up straightway from the water, and lo, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him:
Yesu da hanoa salili, bu wa: legadole leloba, muagado Hebene logo doasibi ba: i. Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala, ‘dafe’ sio agoai ba: i. Amo da sa: ili, Ea da: i da: iya fila dalebe, E da ba: i.
17 and behold, a voice out of the heavens saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I have found my delight.
Amalalu, sia: bagade muagadodili misini amane sia: i, “Amo da Na dogolegei Manodafa! Na da Ema hahawane gala!”
