Luke 3
1 And in the fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar — Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother, tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene —
anno autem quintodecimo imperii Tiberii Caesaris procurante Pontio Pilato Iudaeam tetrarcha autem Galilaeae Herode Philippo autem fratre eius tetrarcha Itureae et Trachonitidis regionis et Lysania Abilinae tetrarcha
2 Annas and Caiaphas being chief priests — there came a word of God unto John the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness,
sub principibus sacerdotum Anna et Caiapha factum est verbum Dei super Iohannem Zacchariae filium in deserto
3 and he came to all the region round the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of reformation — to remission of sins,
et venit in omnem regionem Iordanis praedicans baptismum paenitentiae in remissionem peccatorum
4 as it hath been written in the scroll of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, 'A voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye His paths;
sicut scriptum est in libro sermonum Esaiae prophetae vox clamantis in deserto parate viam Domini rectas facite semitas eius
5 every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall become straightness, and the rough become smooth ways;
omnis vallis implebitur et omnis mons et collis humiliabitur et erunt prava in directa et aspera in vias planas
6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'
et videbit omnis caro salutare Dei
7 Then said he to the multitudes coming forth to be baptised by him, 'Brood of vipers! who did prompt you to flee from the coming wrath?
dicebat ergo ad turbas quae exiebant ut baptizarentur ab ipso genimina viperarum quis ostendit vobis fugere a ventura ira
8 make, therefore, fruits worthy of the reformation, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have a father — Abraham; for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise children to Abraham;
facite ergo fructus dignos paenitentiae et ne coeperitis dicere patrem habemus Abraham dico enim vobis quia potest Deus de lapidibus istis suscitare filios Abrahae
9 and already also the axe unto the root of the trees is laid, every tree, therefore, not making good fruit is cut down, and to fire it is cast.'
iam enim securis ad radicem arborum posita est omnis ergo arbor non faciens fructum exciditur et in ignem mittitur
10 And the multitudes were questioning him, saying, 'What, then, shall we do?'
et interrogabant eum turbae dicentes quid ergo faciemus
11 and he answering saith to them, 'He having two coats — let him impart to him having none, and he having victuals — in like manner let him do.'
respondens autem dicebat illis qui habet duas tunicas det non habenti et qui habet escas similiter faciat
12 And there came also tax-gatherers to be baptised, and they said unto him, 'Teacher, what shall we do?'
venerunt autem et publicani ut baptizarentur et dixerunt ad illum magister quid faciemus
13 and he said unto them, 'Exact no more than that directed you.'
at ille dixit ad eos nihil amplius quam quod constitutum est vobis faciatis
14 And questioning him also were those warring, saying, 'And we, what shall we do?' and he said unto them, 'Do violence to no one, nor accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.'
interrogabant autem eum et milites dicentes quid faciemus et nos et ait illis neminem concutiatis neque calumniam faciatis et contenti estote stipendiis vestris
15 And the people are looking forward, and all are reasoning in their hearts concerning John, whether or not he may be the Christ;
existimante autem populo et cogitantibus omnibus in cordibus suis de Iohanne ne forte ipse esset Christus
16 John answered, saying to all, 'I indeed with water do baptise you, but he cometh who is mightier than I, of whom I am not worthy to loose the latchet of his sandals — he shall baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire;
respondit Iohannes dicens omnibus ego quidem aqua baptizo vos venit autem fortior me cuius non sum dignus solvere corrigiam calciamentorum eius ipse vos baptizabit in Spiritu Sancto et igni
17 whose winnowing shovel [is] in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather the wheat to his storehouse, and the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.'
cuius ventilabrum in manu eius et purgabit aream suam et congregabit triticum in horreum suum paleas autem conburet igni inextinguibili
18 And, therefore, indeed with many other things, exhorting, he was proclaiming good news to the people,
multa quidem et alia exhortans evangelizabat populum
19 and Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him concerning Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, and concerning all the evils that Herod did,
Herodes autem tetrarcha cum corriperetur ab illo de Herodiade uxore fratris sui et de omnibus malis quae fecit Herodes
20 added also this to all, that he shut up John in the prison.
adiecit et hoc supra omnia et inclusit Iohannem in carcere
21 And it came to pass, in all the people being baptised, Jesus also being baptised, and praying, the heaven was opened,
factum est autem cum baptizaretur omnis populus et Iesu baptizato et orante apertum est caelum
22 and the Holy Spirit came down in a bodily appearance, as if a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of heaven, saying, 'Thou art My Son — the Beloved, in thee I did delight.'
et descendit Spiritus Sanctus corporali specie sicut columba in ipsum et vox de caelo facta est tu es Filius meus dilectus in te conplacuit mihi
