Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
Tamy taom-paha folo-lime-ambi’ ty naha mpanjaka i Tiberio Kaisara, ie niragova e Iehodà t’i Pontio Pilato naho mpifeleke e Galilia t’i Heroda, naho mpifeleke e Itoria miharo am-pari’ i Trakonitisy t’i Filipo rahalahi’e, naho mpifeleke e Abilena t’i Lisania
2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
vaho tami’ty naha-talèm-pisoroñe i Anasy naho i Kaiafa, le nivotrake amy Jaona ana’ i Zakaria am-babangoañe añe ty saontsin’ Añahare.
3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
Nitsitsihe’e i tane fiaria’ i saka Iordaneiy nitalily ty filiporam-pisolohoañe ho ami’ty fañahàn-kakeo;
4 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
ie pinatetse amy boken-tsara’ Isaia mpitokiy ty ti-hoe: Ty fiarañànaña’ i mikoike am-patram-bey añey: Hajario ty lala’ i Talè, Avantaño o oloñolo’eo,
5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
Lembefañe ze hene goledoñe, aketrake ze atao vohitse naho tamboho, ho vantañeñe o mikelokelokeo, naho fonga hareneñe o lalañe tomoantoañeo;
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Vaho ho oni’ ze kila nofotse ty fandrombahan’ Añahare.
7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized by him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Le hoe re tamy lahialeñe nivovotse mb’ ama’e mb’eo halipotsey: O ry Tariran-dapetake! Ia ty nanoro anahareo hibotitsike amy haviñerañe mitotokey?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father: for I say to you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
Ampiboaho vokatse mañeva soloho; le ko mamototse mitsakore an-troke ao ty hoe, Rae’ay t’i Abraàme. Itaroñako te mahafitroatse anake ho a i Abraàme amo vato retoañe t’i Andrianañahare.
9 And now also the axe is laid to the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Fa ampoto-katae eo henaneo i fekoñey; le ho firaeñe vaho hafetsak’ añ’afo ao ze hatae tsy mamoa voa soa.
10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
Aa hoe ty ontane’ i lahialeñey ama’e: Ino ty hanoe’ay?
11 He answereth and saith to them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise.
Hoe ty natoi’e: Ze aman-tsaroñe roe, soa re te handiva ami’ty tsy ama’e; le hoe zay ka ze manañe mahakama.
12 Then came also tax collectors to be baptized, and said to him, Master, what shall we do?
Pok’eo ka o mpamory vili-lohao halipotse, nanao ama’e ty hoe: O Mpañoke, ino ty hanoe’ay?
13 And he said to them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
Le hoe re tam’iereo: Ko mangalake mandikoatse ty linily ho anahareo.
14 And the soldiers likewise asked him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said to them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
Le hoe ty ontane’ o lahin-defoñeo: Izahay ka! Ino ty hanoe’ay? Le hoe re tam’iereo: Ko misenge hery ama’ ondaty, le ko manao talily vìlañe, vaho mimoneña amo karama’areoo.
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts concerning John, whether he was the Christ, or not;
Amy fitamà’ ondatioy, le hene niereñere i Jaona añ’arofo te hera ie i Norizañey, ke tsy ie,
16 John answered, saying to them all, I indeed baptize you in water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire:
le hoe ty natoi’ i Jaona am’iareo iaby: Toe alìpoko an-drano ao nahareo, fa homb’eo ty maozatse te amako; tsy mañeva ahy ty hañaha o tomin-kana’eo. Ie ty handipotse anahareo an-Tio Masiñe naho añ-Afo.
17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather the wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
Am-pità’e ty tsikelo’e, le hahoro’e an-tihy famofohañe ao o vokatseo vaho hatonto’e an-driha o mahakamao, fa ho sodora’e añ’afo tsy hay vonoeñe ty kafo’e.
18 And many other things in his exhortation he preached to the people.
Mbe maro ty fañosihañe nanoe’e te nitaroñe am’ondatio.
19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him on account of Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
Aa ie nitrevoke i Heroda mpanjaka ty amy Herodiasie valin-drahalahi’e naho ze fonga sata raty nanoe’ i Heroda,
20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
le mbore nahili’e am-balabey ao t’i Jaona, ho tovo’ iaby rezay.
21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
Ie fonga nalipotse ondatio, nilipotse ka t’Iesoà, niloloke naho nisokake i likerañey
22 And the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
vaho nizotso ama’e am-batañe manahake ty deho i Arofo Masiñey, le hoe ty fiarañanañañe hirik’andindìñe ao: Anako rehe, kokoako; Ihe ro mahafale ahiko.
