Luke 3
1 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother was tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias was tetrarch of Abilene,
Luungwanglong Teberius ih asih paang banga phansiit adi; Pontius Pilat ah Judia ni Kobono angta, Hirod ah Galili phansiitte angta, heh no Philip ah langla Ituria nyia Trakonite phansiitte angta; Lisania ah Abilini hadaang phansiitte angta,
2 during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John the son of Zechariah in the wilderness.
eno Annas nyia Kaiphas ah romwah phokhothoon ang nyuuta. Erah tokdi phisaang hah ni Jekaria sah Joon suh Rangte ih jengkhaap baatta.
3 He went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins,
Eno Joon ih Jordaan Juungko ni Rangte tiit ah tumbaat kaatta, “Sen rangdah nawa ngaak hanno juungtem an, eno ba Rangte ih sen rangdah ah biin anaan han.”
4 as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, “The voice of one crying out in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make his paths straight.
Erah ah khowah Isaia leedap ni raangthiin cho angta: “Mih phisaang hah ni riingla; ‘Teesu raang ih lam ban hoon thiin an; Heh khoomtheng lamjun ih tan an!
5 Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be brought low. The crooked roads will be made straight, and the rough ways will be made smooth.
Hoongbeng haleng loong ah ebook et ah, kong akaan loong ah hoongthung hane ih hoon ah. lam koongkot loong ah lamjun ih hoon ah, lamthih loong ah lamse ih hoon ah.
6 And all flesh will see the salvation of God.’”
Rangte jiin nawa khopiiroidong ah warep ih tup ah!”
7 John said to the crowds that were coming out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
Miloong hantek Joon ih juungtem toom tem he ih ra rum taha. Joon ih liirumta, “Pu sen loong ah!” “O ih baat tahan Rangte ih echamnaang theng daapkaat ha dowa sen epui etheng eah?
8 Produce fruit consistent with repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you that God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
Rangdah nawa elek elang ih sen reeraang pakna nawa ih noisok anbah. Sen chamchi nah seng Abraham sutoom ih laklak nakwaan an. Abraham sutoom bah Rangte ih jong ah toon ano botseh jen hoon et ah!
9 Even now the axe is laid at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”
Bang hehing nah joot haat suh chaang ah ban thiin et ha; hetiikmuh bang loong ah joot haat ano we nah haattak ah.”
10 So the crowds asked him, “What then should we do?”
Miloong ih heh suh cheng rumta, “Erah ang abah, seng ih tumjih et theng ah?”
11 John answered them, “Whoever has two tunics must share with him who has none, and whoever has food must do likewise.”
Heh ih ngaakbaat rumta, “O di samsong enyi jeela esiit ah samsong mute suh kotjih, erah damdi o di phaksat jeela rah ih pheekot et theng.”
12 Some tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what should we do?”
Mararah sokse seete nep juungtem ra taha, eno cheng rumta, “Nyootte, seng ih tumjih reejih ah?”
13 He said to them, “Collect no more than what you have been authorized to collect.”
Eno Joon ih baat rumta, “Sokse mathan seejih ah erah ba se an erah tokkhodoh ehan nak mook se an.”
14 Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He said to them, “Do not extort money from anyone by threats or false accusations, and be content with your wages.”
Mararah sipaahi ih nep heh suh cheng rumta, seng ih aleh? Tumjih etjih ah? Heh ih baat rumta, “Mih dowa ngun chaan ih nakmok suh an adoleh mih lathika doh ethih etu ih nak nan an. Sen ngun la di mathan cholan erah suh roon an.”
15 Now as the people were waiting in expectation and were all questioning in their hearts whether John might be the Christ,
Mina loong ah ih choocho ih dong laalom rumta, eno neng ih Joon asuh Kristo tam angla ih thun rumta.
16 John answered them all, “I baptize you with water, but one is coming who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
Eno Joon ih loongtang suh baat rumta, “Ngah ih juung nawa ih juungtem rumhala, enoothong nga lini mih wasiit nga nang ih elong raaha. Ngah bah heh lakhoop pak taajoh tha uh taliikang. Heh ih bah Esa Chiiala nyia we nawa ih juungtem han.
17 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will thoroughly clean out his threshing floor and gather the wheat into his barn, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.”
Heh jiinni nunrek je ah, erah ih raan ah dannun ano pung nah toonthiin ah, eno hephaang loong ah we nah babah uh lamettheng adoh tak ah.”
18 With these and many other exhortations John preached good news to the people.
Joon ih hejaat hejaat lam nawa ih miloong asuh Ruurang Ese ah nyootsoot leh neng roidong ah elek raangtaan ih baat rumta.
19 But when John rebuked Herod the tetrarch because of his marriage to Herodias, his brother's wife, and because of all the evils that he had done,
Enoothong Joon ih Kobono Hirod asuh liita, tumeah heh ih Hirodias heh no minuh ah, kapta, erah damdi uh ethih loong ephoop reeta.
20 Herod added this to everything else: He locked up John in prison.
Hirod ih Joon ah phaatak ni sakta rah boot thetreeta.
21 Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus had also been baptized and was praying, the heavens were opened,
Miloong juungtem lini, Jisu ih nep heh juungtem ah we temta. Heh ih rangsoom adi, rang kaasak ah daap eta,
22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. Then a voice came from heaven, saying, “Yoʋ are my beloved Son; in yoʋ I am well pleased.”
eno Esa Chiiala ah hansi ni wotuupi likhiik heh khothung ni datpura taha. Eno rang ni root esiit dongjengta, “An ah nga mongnook sah. Ngah an suh eroon elang.”
