Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being Governor of Judaea, Herod Tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip Tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias Tetrarch of Abilene,
Eta Tiberio Cesaren emperadoregoaren hamaborzgarren vrthean, Pontio Pilate Iudeaco gobernadore cenean, eta Herodes Galileaco tetrarcha, eta harén anaye Philippe halaber Iturea eta Trachonite comarcaco tetrarcha, eta Lisania Abilineco tetrarcha,
2 during the High-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, a message from God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the Desert.
Eta Annas eta Caiphas Sacrificadore subirano ciradenean: eman cequión Iaincoaren hitza Ioannes Zachariasen semeari desertuan.
3 John went into all the district about the Jordan proclaiming a baptism of the penitent for the forgiveness of sins;
Eta ethor cedin Iordanaren inguruco comarca gucira, predicatzen çuela emendamendutaco Baptismoa bekatuén barkamendutan:
4 as it is written in the book of the prophet Isaiah, "The voice of one crying aloud! 'In the Desert prepare ye a road for the Lord: make His highway straight.
Nola baita scribatua Esaias prophetaren hitzén liburuän, dioela, Desertuan oihuz dagoenaren voza da, Appain eçaçue Iaunaren bidea, plana itzaçue haren bidescác.
5 Every ravine shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill levelled down, the crooked places shall be turned into straight roads, and the rugged ways into smooth;
Haran gucia betheren da, eta mendi eta mendisca gucia beheraturen da, eta makur diraden gauçác chuchenduren dirade, eta bide ikeçuac planaturen,
6 and then shall all mankind see God's salvation.'"
Eta ikussiren du haragui guciac Iaincoaren saluagarria.
7 Accordingly John used to say to the crowds who came out to be baptized by him, "O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
Erraiten cerauen bada harenganic batheya litecençat ethorten ciraden gendetzey, Vipera castá, norc auisatu çaituzte ethorteco den hirari ihes eguiten?
8 Live lives which shall prove your change of heart; and do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our forefather,' for I tell you that God can raise up descendants for Abraham from these stones.
Eguin itzaçue bada fructu emendamenduaren digneac: eta etzaiteztela has erraiten ceuroc baithan, Abraham dugu aita: ecen badiotsuet, Iaincoac harri hautaric-ere Abrahami haour suscita, ahal dieçaqueola.
9 And even now the axe is lying at the root of the trees, so that every tree which fails to yield good fruit will quickly be hewn down and thrown into the fire."
Bada ia aizcora-ere arborén errora eçarria da: beraz arbore fructu on eguiten eztuen gucia piccatzen da, eta sura egoizten.
10 The crowds repeatedly asked him, "What then are we to do?"
Orduan interroga ceçaten gendetzéc, cioitela, Cer eguinen dugu beraz?
11 "Let the man who has two coats," he answered, "give one to the man who has none; and let the man who has food share it with others."
Eta ihardesten çuela erran ciecén, Bi arropa dituenac eman bieço eztuenari: eta iatecoric duenac, halaber eguin beça.
12 There came also a party of tax-gatherers to be baptized, and they asked him, "Rabbi, what are we to do?"
Ethor cedin publicanoetaric-ere batheya litecençat: eta erran cieçoten, Magistruá, cer eguinen dugu?
13 "Do not exact more than the legal amount," he replied.
Eta harc erran ciecén, Deus ordenatu çaiçuen baino guehiago ezteçaçuela erekar.
14 The soldiers also once and again inquired of him, "And we, what are we to do?" His answer was, "Neither intimidate any one nor lay false charges; and be content with your pay."
Interroga ceçaten gendarmesec-ere, cioitela, Eta guc cer eguinen dugu? Eta dioste, Nehor ezteçaçuela tormenta, ez iniuria: eta contenta çaitezte çuen gagéz.
15 And while the people were in suspense and all were debating in their minds whether John might possibly be the Anointed One,
Eta populua beha cegoela, eta guciéc bere bihotzetan pensatzen çutela Ioannesez, eya hura liçatenez Christ,
16 he answered the question by saying to them all, "As for me, I am baptizing you with water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose very sandal-strap I am not worthy to unfasten: He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and with fire.
Ihardets ceçan Ioannesec, erraiten cerauela guciey, Eguia da nic batheyatzen çaituztet vrez: baina heldu da ni baino borthitzago dena, ceinen çapatetaco hedearen lachatzeco ezpainaiz digne: harc batheyaturen çaituzte Spiritu sainduaz eta suz.
17 His winnowing-shovel is in His hand to clear out His threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into His storehouse; but the chaff He will burn up in fire unquenchable."
Ceinen bahea haren escuan içanen baita, eta garbituren du chahu bere larraina: eta bilduren du bihia bere granerera: baina lastoa choil erreren du bihinere hiltzen ezten suan.
18 With many exhortations besides these he declared the Good News to the people.
Bada anhitz berce gauçaz-ere exhortatzen çuela euangelizatzen ceraucan populuari.
19 But Herod the Tetrarch, being repeatedly rebuked by him about Herodias his brother's wife, and about all the wicked deeds that he had done,
Baina Herodes tetrarcha harçaz reprehenditzen cenean, Herodias bere anaye Philipperen emazteagatic, eta berac eguin cituen gaichtaqueria guciacgatic,
20 now added this to crown all the rest, that he threw John into prison.
Eratchequi ceçan haur-ere berce gucién gainera, eçar baitzeçan Ioannes presoindeguian.
21 Now when all the people had been baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the sky opened,
Eta guertha cedin populu gucia batheyatzen cela, eta Iesus batheyaturic othoiztez cegoela, irequi baitzedin cerua:
22 and the Holy Spirit came down in bodily shape, like a dove, upon Him, and a voice came from Heaven, which said, "Thou art My Son, dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."
Eta iauts baitzedin Spiritu saindua forma visibletan vsso columba baten guissán, haren gainera, eta vozbat cerutic eguin baitzedin, cioela, Hi aiz ene Seme maitea, hitan hartzen diat neure atseguin ona.
