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 his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
anantaraṁ tibiriyakaisarasya rājatvasya pañcadaśe vatsare sati yadā pantīyapīlāto yihūdādeśādhipati rherod tu gālīlpradeśasya rājā philipanāmā tasya bhrātā tu yitūriyāyāstrākhonītiyāpradeśasya ca rājāsīt luṣānīyanāmā avilīnīdeśasya rājāsīt
2 in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the wilderness.
hānan kiyaphāścemau pradhānayājākāvāstāṁ tadānīṁ sikhariyasya putrāya yohane madhyeprāntaram īśvarasya vākye prakāśite sati
3 He came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
sa yarddana ubhayataṭapradeśān sametya pāpamocanārthaṁ manaḥparāvarttanasya cihnarūpaṁ yanmajjanaṁ tadīyāḥ kathāḥ sarvvatra pracārayitumārebhe|
4 As it is written in the scroll of the words of Isaiah the prophet, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.
yiśayiyabhaviṣyadvaktṛgranthe yādṛśī lipirāste yathā, parameśasya panthānaṁ pariṣkuruta sarvvataḥ| tasya rājapathañcaiva samānaṁ kurutādhunā|
5 Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be made low, and the crooked will be made straight, and the rough ways smooth.
kāriṣyante samucchrāyāḥ sakalā nimnabhūmayaḥ| kāriṣyante natāḥ sarvve parvvatāścopaparvvatāḥ| kāriṣyante ca yā vakrāstāḥ sarvvāḥ saralā bhuvaḥ| kāriṣyante samānāstā yā uccanīcabhūmayaḥ|
6 And all humanity will see the salvation of God.'"
īśvareṇa kṛtaṁ trāṇaṁ drakṣyanti sarvvamānavāḥ| ityetat prāntare vākyaṁ vadataḥ kasyacid ravaḥ||
7 He said therefore to the crowds who went out to be baptized by him, "You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
ye ye lokā majjanārthaṁ bahirāyayustān sovadat re re sarpavaṁśā āgāminaḥ kopāt palāyituṁ yuṣmān kaścetayāmāsa?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say among yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father;' for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
tasmād ibrāhīm asmākaṁ pitā kathāmīdṛśīṁ manobhi rna kathayitvā yūyaṁ manaḥparivarttanayogyaṁ phalaṁ phalata; yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi pāṣāṇebhya etebhya īśvara ibrāhīmaḥ santānotpādane samarthaḥ|
9 Even now the axe also lies at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bring forth good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire."
aparañca tarumūle'dhunāpi paraśuḥ saṁlagnosti yastaruruttamaṁ phalaṁ na phalati sa chidyate'gnau nikṣipyate ca|
10 The crowds asked him, "What then must we do?"
tadānīṁ lokāstaṁ papracchustarhi kiṁ karttavyamasmābhiḥ?
11 He answered them, "He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. He who has food, let him do likewise."
tataḥ sovādīt yasya dve vasane vidyete sa vastrahīnāyaikaṁ vitaratu kiṁñca yasya khādyadravyaṁ vidyate sopi tathaiva karotu|
12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what must we do?"
tataḥ paraṁ karasañcāyino majjanārtham āgatya papracchuḥ he guro kiṁ karttavyamasmābhiḥ?
13 He said to them, "Collect no more than that which is appointed to you."
tataḥ sokathayat nirūpitādadhikaṁ na gṛhlita|
14 Soldiers also asked him, saying, "What about us? What must we do?" He said to them, "Extort from no one by violence, neither accuse anyone wrongfully. Be content with your wages."
anantaraṁ senāgaṇa etya papraccha kimasmābhi rvā karttavyam? tataḥ sobhidadhe kasya kāmapi hāniṁ mā kārṣṭa tathā mṛṣāpavādaṁ mā kuruta nijavetanena ca santuṣya tiṣṭhata|
15 As the people were in expectation, and all were wondering in their hearts concerning John, whether perhaps he was the Christ,
aparañca lokā apekṣayā sthitvā sarvvepīti manobhi rvitarkayāñcakruḥ, yohanayam abhiṣiktastrātā na veti?
16 John answered them all, "I indeed baptize you with water, but he comes who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to loosen. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,
tadā yohan sarvvān vyājahāra, jale'haṁ yuṣmān majjayāmi satyaṁ kintu yasya pādukābandhanaṁ mocayitumapi na yogyosmi tādṛśa eko matto gurutaraḥ pumān eti, sa yuṣmān vahnirūpe pavitra ātmani majjayiṣyati|
17 whose winnowing fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing floor, and to gather the wheat into his barn; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."
aparañca tasya haste śūrpa āste sa svaśasyāni śuddharūpaṁ prasphoṭya godhūmān sarvvān bhāṇḍāgāre saṁgrahīṣyati kintu būṣāṇi sarvvāṇyanirvvāṇavahninā dāhayiṣyati|
18 Then with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people,
yohan upadeśenetthaṁ nānākathā lokānāṁ samakṣaṁ pracārayāmāsa|
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,
aparañca herod rājā philipnāmnaḥ sahodarasya bhāryyāṁ herodiyāmadhi tathānyāni yāni yāni kukarmmāṇi kṛtavān tadadhi ca
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
yohanā tiraskṛto bhūtvā kārāgāre tasya bandhanād aparamapi kukarmma cakāra|
21 Now it happened, when all the people were baptized, Jesus also had been baptized, and was praying. The sky was opened,
itaḥ pūrvvaṁ yasmin samaye sarvve yohanā majjitāstadānīṁ yīśurapyāgatya majjitaḥ|
22 and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form as a dove on him; and a voice came out of the sky, saying "You are my beloved Son. In you I am well pleased."
tadanantaraṁ tena prārthite meghadvāraṁ muktaṁ tasmācca pavitra ātmā mūrttimān bhūtvā kapotavat taduparyyavaruroha; tadā tvaṁ mama priyaḥ putrastvayi mama paramaḥ santoṣa ityākāśavāṇī babhūva|
23 When he began, Jesus was about thirty years old, being the son, as was supposed, of Joseph, of Eli,
