Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch of Iturea, and the country of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilina;
Tiberi badciamo n dini li bali, li piiga n bina mu po, Ponsi Piilaati den tie Suude bado, ke Herodi tie Gaalile bado, ke o ninjua Fiilipi tie Iture yeni Traconiiti bado, Lisaniasi tie Abilen bado.
2 Under the high priests Annas and Caiphas; the word of the Lord was made unto John, the son of Zachary, in the desert.
Hani yeni Kayiifi n den tie bi Salyidcianba. Laa binli i ke U Tienu bo maadi leni Sakari bijua Jan mi fanpienma nni.
3 And he came into all the country about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of penance for the remission of sins;
Jan bo gedi Surdan fuanli nni kuli. O bo yii bi niba ke ban cua ke ban wuli ba U Tienu ñima, ke lan waani ke bi lebdi bi yama ke U Tienu dini sugli bi tuonbiadi po.
4 As it was written in the book of the sayings of Isaias the prophet: A voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.
Yeni ke U Tienu Sawalpualo Esayi n bo diani yaala o tili nni tieni yeni mɔni: Bi gbia o nulo nialu ke o kpaandi mi fanpienma ki tua: Bobni man o sani,
5 Every valley shall be filled; and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight; and the rough ways plain;
Baalɔdga kuli ba piini, Juali kuli yeni gbangbanli kuli ba sali, Ti sangolndi ba sondi, Ti sanbuodi kuli ṅ sali,
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Ke bi niba kuli ba lá U Tienu ŋalbalgo.
7 He said therefore to the multitudes that went forth to be baptized by him: Ye offspring of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?
Jan bo maadi ya niwulgu n bo cuoni ki bua ke wan wuli ba U Tienu ñima ki: A waalaba buoli! ŋma tundi yi ke yi sani U Tienu mutuoli yaali n cuoni?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of penance; and do not begin to say, We have Abraham for our father. For I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
Waani man i tuona nni ke i lebdi i yenyienu. Da kubi man i pala nni ke: «Ti tie Abrahama yaabila!» kelima, diidi man a tana ne: N maadi yi ke U Tienu ba fidi ki cedi ke ŋan kpandi Abrahama bila.
9 For now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down and cast into the fire.
Tin faami! Bi bobni li yali ki ba cua ki guli i tiidi: Ya tubu kuli ki loni luanŋanli bi ba cua bu ki juu bu u muu.
10 And the people asked him, saying: What then shall we do?
Lani ke ku niwulgu buali o: Ti ba tieni ledi?
11 And he answering, said to them: He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do in like manner.
ke o ŋmiani ba: li ya tie ke yua pia liada lie, wan teni yua ki pia, liadyenli. Yua pia ti jiedi mɔ, wan bɔgdi ki teni yua ki pia.
12 And the publicans also came to be baptized, and said to him: Master, what shall we do?
A patendgaala (lonpogaala) mɔ bo cua ke wan wuli ba U Tienu ñima. Bi bo buali Jan: ... Canbaa, ti ba tieni ledi?
13 But he said to them: Do nothing more than that which is appointed you.
... ke o ŋmiani ba, Da gaa man ti patendi (lonpo) ke ti cie Gobna n seni maama.
14 And the soldiers also asked him, saying: And what shall we do? And he said to them: Do violence to no man; neither calumniate any man; and be content with your pay.
Sijenba mɔ den buali o: ... Ke tinba i, ti mɔ ba tieni ledi? ... O den ŋmiani ba, da fie man obá ligi, ki gɔ da fani ku faagu obá po: I pali ṅ ya mani i ŋmaapani po.
15 And as the people were of opinion, and all were thinking in their hearts of John, that perhaps he might be the Christ;
Bi niba den ye li dandanli nni paaa, ki ji den buali bi bá nni, bii Jan n baa tie O Candaano.
16 John answered, saying unto all: I indeed baptize you with water; but there shall come one mightier that I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Ke Jan ŋmiani bi kuli: ... Min wan wuu yi mi ñima nni. Ama o nulo ba cua, ki pia u paalu ki cie nni. Mii dagdi yeni min lodi o taacagbanu. Wani, o ba wuli yi mi Foŋanma yeni U Tienu muu nni.
17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.
O kubi o dilendyetonga, ki ba lendi o dii, ki wodi i diŋami ki kuodi o bɔnbuali nni. Ku fengu wani, o ba lu gu ya muu n kan baa jundi (gbeni) nni.
18 And many other things exhorting, did he preach to the people.
Jan gɔ ŋanbi ki puuni bi niba U Tienu ñɔmaama n buali maama, muandi ba laabamanli.
19 But Herod the tetrarch, when he was reproved by him for Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done;
Ama, o bo jalgi o bado Herodi yeni wan kuani Herodiati, o ninjawaalo denpua, ki gɔ tieni ya tuonbiadi n yabi.
20 He added this also above all, and shut up John in prison.
Herodi gɔ bo cuo Jan ki luoni o dansalgi ki pugni o tuonbiadi po.
21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that Jesus also being baptized and praying, heaven was opened;
Bi niba kuli cua ke Jan n wuli ba U Tienu ñima. Ke Jan wuli Jesu mɔ U Tienu ñima. Ama, ya yogu ke Jesu den jaandi, ke Tanpoli po luodi.
22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape, as a dove upon him; and a voice came from heaven: Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
Ke Mi Foŋanma jiidi o po, ki naani nani li lanjeli yeni, ke nialu bă ñani tanpoli po ki maadi: ... A tie n bibuadga. N pali mani a po boncianla.
23 And Jesus himself was beginning about the age of thirty years; being (as it was supposed) the son of Joseph, who was of Heli, who was of Mathat,
Ya yogu ke Jesu bo cili o tuonli, o den pia bina piita i. Nani bi niba n bo maali (maadi) ke tie Sosefi bijua yeni, o yaajanba yela nne: Eli,
