< Luke 3 >

1 Nowe in the fifteenth yeere of the reigne of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being gouernour of Iudea, and Herod being Tetrarch of Galile, and his brother Philip Tetrarch of Iturea, and of the countrey of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the 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 (When Annas and Caiaphas were the hie Priestes) the worde of God came vnto Iohn, the sonne of Zacharias in the wildernes.
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 And hee came into all the coastes about Iordan, preaching the baptisme of repentance for the remission of sinnes,
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 booke of the sayings of Esaias the Prophet, which saith, The voyce of him that crieth in the wildernes is, Prepare ye the way of the Lord: 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 Euery valley shalbe filled, and euery mountaine and hill shall be brought lowe, and crooked things shalbe made straight, and the rough wayes shalbe made smoothe.
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 shall see the saluation of God.
and will behold all flesh the salvation of God.
7 Then said he to the people that were come out to be baptized of him, O generations of vipers, who hath forewarned you to flee from the wrath to come?
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 Bring foorth therefore fruites worthy amendment of life, and beginne not to say with your selues, We haue Abraham to our father: for I say vnto you, that God is able of these stones to raise vp children vnto Abraham.
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 Nowe also is the axe layed vnto the roote of the trees: therefore euery tree which bringeth not foorth good fruite, shalbe hewen downe, and cast 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 Then the people asked him, saying, What shall we doe then?
And were asking him the crowds saying; What then (shall we do? *N+kO)
11 And he answered, and said vnto them, He that hath two coates, let him part with him that hath none: and hee that hath meate, let him doe 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 Then came there Publicanes also to bee baptized, and saide vnto him, Master, what shall we doe?
Came then also tax collectors to be baptized and they said to him; Teacher, what (shall we do? *N+kO)
13 And hee saide vnto them, Require no more then that which is appointed vnto you.
And he said to them; Nothing more beyond that appointed to you do collect.
14 The souldiers likewise demaunded of him, saying, And what shall we doe? And he saide vnto them, Doe violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely, 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 As the people waited, and all men mused in their heartes of Iohn, if he were not that Christ,
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 Iohn answered, and saide to them all, In deede I baptize you with water, but one stronger then I, commeth, whose shoes latchet I am not worthy to vnloose: hee will baptize you with the holy Ghost, and with 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 fanne is in his hande, and hee will make cleane his floore, and will gather the wheate into his garner, but the chaffe will hee burne vp with fire that neuer shalbe quenched.
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 Thus then exhorting with many other things, he preached vnto the people.
Many indeed therefore other things exhorting he was evangelising the people.
19 But when Herod the Tetrarch was rebuked of him, for Herodias his brother Philips wife, and for all the euils which Herod had done,
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 He added yet this aboue all, that he shut vp Iohn in prison.
added yet this to all: Also he locked up John in prison.
21 Nowe it came to passe, as all the people were baptized, and that Iesus was baptized and did pray, that the heauen 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 Ghost came downe in a bodily shape like a doue, vpon him, and there was a voyce from heauen, saying, Thou art my beloued Sonne: in thee I am 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.
