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, while his brother Philip was tetrarch of the region of Iturea and Trachonitis and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
In year then fifteenth of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, when is being governor Pontius Pilate of Judea and when is being tetrarch of Galilee Herod, Philip now the brother when he is being tetrarch of Ituraea and of Trachonitis [the] region and Lysanias of Abilene being tetrarch
2 during the high priesthood of Annas (also Caiaphas), the word of God came upon John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
during ([the] high priesthood *N+kO) of Annas and Caiaphas, came [the] declaration of God upon John the of Zechariah son in the wilderness.
3 So he went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins;
And he went into all the surrounding region of the Jordan proclaiming a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins
4 as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: “A voice calling out: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord in the wilderness, make His paths straight.
as it has been written in [the] book of [the] words of Isaiah the prophet (saying: *k) [The] voice of one crying in the wilderness do prepare the way of [the] Lord, straight do make the paths of Him.
5 Every ravine will be filled up, and every mountain and hill will be leveled; the crooked parts of the roads will be straightened out, and the rough parts will be smoothed out;
Every valley will be filled and every mountain and hill will be made low; and will become the crooked into (straight *NK+o) and the rough into ways smooth;
6 and all flesh will see the salvation of God.’”
and will behold all flesh the salvation of God.
7 Then he said to the crowds that were coming out to be baptized by him: “You sons of poisonous snakes! Who tipped you off to flee from the coming wrath?
He was saying therefore to the coming out crowds to be baptized by him; Offspring of vipers, who forewarned you to flee from the soon coming wrath?
8 Well then, produce fruits befitting repentance, and don't even begin to say among yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as father,’ because I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones!
do produce therefore fruits worthy of repentance; and not may begin to say in yourselves; [As] father We have Abraham. I say for to you that is able God from stones these to raise up children to Abraham.
9 But even now the axe is being laid to the root of the trees; so then, every tree not producing good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”
Already now also the ax to the root of the trees is applied; every therefore tree not producing fruit good is cut down and into [the] fire is thrown.
10 So the people started asking him, “What then must we do?”
And were asking him the crowds saying; What then (shall we do? *N+kO)
11 In answer he said to them, “He who has two coats, let him share with him who has none; and he who has food should do likewise.”
Answering now (he was saying *N+kO) to them; The [one] having two tunics he should impart to the [one] none having and the [one] having food likewise he should do.
12 Well even tax collectors came to be baptized by him and said to him, “Teacher, what must we do?”
Came then also tax collectors to be baptized and they said to him; Teacher, what (shall we do? *N+kO)
13 So He said to them, “Don't charge more than what was determined to you.”
And he said to them; Nothing more beyond that appointed to you do collect.
14 So the soldiers started asking him too: “What about us? What must we do?” He said to them, “Don't extort or harass anyone, and be content with your wages.”
Were asking then him also those being soldiers saying; What (may do *N+kO) also we ourselves And he said (to *k) (to them; *N+kO) No one may extort nor may accuse falsely and do be content with the wages of you.
15 Now as the people were expectant and all were reasoning in their hearts concerning John, whether he just might be the Messiah,
When were expecting then the people and wondering all in the hearts of them concerning John, whether whether he himself would be the Christ,
16 John anticipated them all saying: “I indeed am baptizing you with water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal straps I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with Holy Spirit and fire;
Answered saying ([to] all *N+kO) John: I myself indeed with water baptize you; comes however the [One] mightier than I, of whom not I am worthy to untie the strap of the sandals of Him. He himself you will baptize with [the] Spirit Holy and with fire,
17 whose winnowing shovel is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor and gather the wheat into His barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
of whom the winnowing fork [is] in the hand of Him (and *k) (to scour *N+kO) the threshing floor of Him and (to gather *N+kO) the wheat into the barn of Him. But the chaff He will burn up with fire unquenchable.
18 (Indeed, with many other exhortations as well he kept on preaching to the people;
Many indeed therefore other things exhorting he was evangelising the people.
19 but Herod the tetrarch—being reproved by him concerning Herodias, his brother's wife, as also about all the wicked things that Herod perpetrated—
And Herod the tetrarch being reproved by him concerning Herodias the wife (of Philip *K) of the brother of him and concerning all that did [the] evils Herod,
20 added this also to them all: he actually locked John up in his prison.)
added yet this to all: Also he locked up John in prison.
21 Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus, having been baptized also, was praying, when the heaven was opened
It came to pass now in baptizing all the people and when Jesus having been baptized and having prayed [was] opening the heaven
22 and the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove and rested upon Him, and a Voice came out of heaven saying, “You are my beloved Son; in you I am always well pleased.”
and descending the Spirit Holy in a bodily form (as *N+kO) a dove upon Him and a voice out of heaven coming (saying: *k) You yourself are the Son of Mine the beloved, in You I am well pleased.
