< Luke 3 >

1 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar—while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod was tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip was tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias was tetrarch of Abilene,
Leleꞌ naa, Tiberius dadꞌi keser mana toꞌu parendaꞌ sia Roma, too sanahulu lima ena. Pontius Pilatus dadꞌi hofernor sia propensi Yudea. Herodes dadꞌi hofernor sia propensi Galilea. Herodes aꞌan Filipus, dadꞌi hofernor sia propensi Iturea no propensi Trakonitis. Boe ma Lisanias dadꞌi hofernor sia propensi Abilene. Leleꞌ naa Hanas no Kayafas dadꞌi malangga monaeꞌ agama Yahudi sia kota Yerusalem. Leleꞌ naa o, Yohanis, Sakaria anan, leo sia mamana rouꞌ fo naꞌadꞌoꞌ mia kamboꞌ. Sia naa, Lamatuaꞌ fee hara-liin neu e.
2 during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas—the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.
3 He went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
Yohanis rena nala, ma ana lao nisiꞌ basa kamboꞌ mana deka no loe Yarden, de nafadꞌe atahori ra nae, “Hei musi mitaa ma lao hela basa sala mara, fo Lamatualain fee ambon neu sala-kilu mara naa ra. Hei o musi sarani dei, fo dadꞌi tanda oi, hei malole mo Lamatuaꞌ ena.”
4 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, “A voice of one calling out in the wilderness, 'Make ready the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
Dalahulun, Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-olan baꞌi Yesaya suraꞌ soꞌal Yohanis nae, “Hambu atahori sia mamana rouꞌ nggasi nae, Basa atahori mihehere tao mitetu dalaꞌ, fo simbo Lamatuaꞌ neneman! Tao mitetu dalaꞌ fo soru E.
5 Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be made low, and the crooked roads will be made straight, and the uneven places will be built into roads,
Mbori misofe ndola romaꞌ. Poko mitetu leteꞌ ra. Tao mindoo dꞌala penggoꞌ ra, tao mimilenu dꞌala fatu-fatuꞌ ra.
6 and all flesh will see the salvation of God.'”
Naa fo atahori mia basa nusaꞌ ra bisa bubꞌuluꞌ rae, Lamatuaꞌ nae fee atahori rasodꞌa mia sala-kilu nara.’”
7 So John said to the crowds who were coming out to be baptized by him, “You offspring of vipers! Who warned you to run away from the wrath that is coming?
Atahori hetar rema mia sudꞌiꞌ a bee fo roꞌe Yohanis sarani se. Te ana bua se nae, “Weh! Hei mana peko-lelekoꞌ! Hei onaꞌ mengge marasoꞌ a! Afiꞌ duꞌa mae hei nenemboꞌit mia Lamatuaꞌ huku-dokin noꞌa lelekoꞌ miloeꞌ tao sala! Hokoꞌ! Nda dooꞌ sa ena, Lamatuaꞌ fee huku-dokiꞌ neu basa atahori nda mana dꞌoaꞌ tao salaꞌ no matetuꞌ sa.
8 Therefore, produce fruits that are worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father,' for I tell you that God is able to raise up children for Abraham from these stones.
Hei afiꞌ duꞌa mae, ‘Au ia nda hambu huku-dokiꞌ sa, huu au baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosin.’ Hambu sia bee taꞌo naa? Naa nda tulun hei sa, huu nda bisa tao nggi dadꞌi atahori meumareꞌ sa. Lamatuaꞌ bisa tao fatu ia ra dadꞌi baꞌi Abaraham tititi-nonosin. Au ufadꞌe, e! Mitudꞌu no hei tatao-nonoim mara, mae hei misidꞌea lao hela sala mara, ma tungga baliꞌ neu Lamatuaꞌ ena.
9 Even now the ax is set against the root of the trees. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.”
Hei musi tao dꞌala maloleꞌ. Mete ma hokoꞌ, dodꞌoo fa te hei hambu Lamatuaꞌ huku-doki mamberan, onaꞌ atahori ungga hendi hau huuꞌ rendiꞌ taꞌa. Mete ma hau huuꞌ sa nda naꞌena buna-bꞌoa maloleꞌ sa, na, nda ma nggunaꞌ sa! De malole lenaꞌ ungga hendi e, fo tao ai rala neu.”
10 Then the crowds kept asking him, saying, “What then are we to do?”
Basa ma, atahori naa ra ratane Yohanis rae, “Dadꞌi hai musi tao sa?”
11 He answered and said to them, “If someone has two tunics, he should share it with a person who has none, and the one having food should do the same.”
Boe ma ana nataa nae, “Mete ma miꞌena badꞌu rua, na, fee esa neu atahori nda ma badꞌuꞌ sa. Mete ma miꞌena nanaat, na, banggi fee atahori nda mana naꞌena nanaat sa.”
12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what must we do?”
Basa ma, mana edꞌa bea ra rema roꞌe Yohanis sarani se. Ara ratane rae, “Papa meser! Hai musi tao taꞌo bee?”
13 He said to them, “Do not collect more money than you have been ordered to collect.”
Ana nataa nae, “Hei akaꞌ peko-lelekoꞌ. Te ia na hei musi ue-tao no ndoo-tetuꞌ. Afi moꞌe bea lenaꞌ-lenaꞌ mia mana parenda ra atoran. Hela rauinggu ra bae bea tungga atoran.”
14 Some soldiers also asked him, saying, “What about us? What must we do?” He said to them, “Do not take money from anyone by force, and do not accuse anyone falsely. Be content with your wages.”
Hambu soldꞌadꞌu hira o mia naa boe. Ara ratane Yohanis rae, “hai taꞌo bee? Hai musi tao sa?” Basa ma nataa nae, “Afi mia mateꞌ atahori ra doin, tungga hihii mara. Ma afiꞌ fua salaꞌ leli neu atahori. Hei musi mimihoꞌo-mitidꞌale mo nggadꞌi mara.”
15 Now as the people were eagerly expecting the Christ to come, everyone was wondering in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Christ.
Rena oꞌolan ma, basa atahori ra esa keis esa ma utu-utu rae, “Awee! Mbei ma Yohanis ia, Kristus, fo Lamatuaꞌ helu basa nae haitua nema eniꞌ a dalahulun!”
16 John answered by saying to them all, “As for me, I baptize you with water, but someone is coming who is more powerful than I, and I am not worthy even to untie the strap of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
Te Yohanis ai se nae, “Rena malolole! Dei fo hambu atahori sa manaseliꞌ lena au nae nema. Onaꞌ mae dadꞌiꞌ a dedꞌenun o, au nda undandaa sa. Au sarani hei noꞌ a oe, te dei fo Ana tao lenaꞌ au, Ana tao nasofe rala mara no Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren. Dei fo Ana tao nameu nggi, onaꞌ atahori hotu manggarauꞌ rendiꞌ ai.
17 His winnowing fork is in his hand to thoroughly clear off his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his storehouse. But he will burn up the chaff with fire that can never be put out.”
Ana huku-doki atahori mana tao salaꞌ ra, onaꞌ atahori mana tao moleꞌ sa nalaidꞌi are-gandum dꞌekeꞌ. Basa ma ana oni are-gandum dꞌeke meuꞌ nisiꞌ soka-poleꞌ rala neu, ma hotu hendi manggenggeoꞌ ra. Onaꞌ naa boe, dei fo Kristus huku-doki atahori mana tao salaꞌ ra, ma nggari se risiꞌ ai mbilaꞌ nda mana mamaꞌetuꞌ a sa.
18 With many other exhortations also, John preached good news to the people.
No taꞌo naa, Yohanis fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ mata-mataꞌ neu atahori, ma nafadꞌe se Lamatuaꞌ Hara-lii Malolen.
19 When Herod the tetrarch had been reproved for marrying his brother's wife Herodias, and for all the other evil things that Herod had done,
Leleꞌ naa, Yohanis o olaꞌ relo-relo Herodes tataon. Eni salan taꞌo ia: Herodes naa, hofernor sia propensi Galilea. Salan naen seli ena. Salan esa, naeni: Ana lea nala odꞌin saon, naran Herodias. Naa te, odin feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ, ma nda feꞌe mahelaꞌ no Herodias sa. Herodes masodꞌan fo nda matetuꞌ naa sa, tao Yohanis ai e no relo-relo, de Herodes nda hii e sa. Basa ma Herodes toꞌu nala e, de nggari e bui rala neu.
20 he added this to them all, that he locked John up in prison.
21 Now it came about, when all the people were baptized, Jesus also was baptized, and while he was praying, the heavens opened,
Dalahulun, leleꞌ ara nda feꞌe humu Yohanes sa, ana sarani atahori hetar. Ma Ana o sarani Yesus boe. Basa naa ma Yesus hule-oꞌe ma lalai a sii.
22 and the Holy Spirit in bodily form came down on him like a dove, and a voice came from heaven, “You are my Son, whom I love. I am pleased with you.”
Boe ma Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren onda neu E. Dula-daleꞌ a mata aon onaꞌ mbui lunda. Boe ma haraꞌ mia lalai nae, “Ho ia, Au Ana susue ngga. Ho tao mumuhoꞌo Au mukundooꞌ a.”
23 When Jesus began his ministry, he was about thirty years of age. He was the son (as it was assumed) of Joseph, the son of Heli,
