Now in the fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch of Ituraea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
2 Uganiya me Hanana nan kayata we wani ana dandang aka tuma ka Asere, tize ta Asere ti ē Yohanna usam uzakariya anyimo ani jaa.
in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, [the] word of God came upon John, the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness.
3 Ma haki vat ati hihira sa ta kete uraba urdu, unu bezizi utize ta Asere nan ubaptisma ubarka barki uvette ucaran.
And he came into all the district round the Jordan, preaching [the] baptism of repentance for [the] remission of sins,
4 Kasi uyerte utize ti Ishaya unu kurzuzo utize ta Asere, “Ni Myiran unu tissa ani Jaa, 'Barkani unaa Asere, Barkani tinaa tumeme dret.
as it is written in [the] book of [the] words of Esaias the prophet: Voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of [the] Lord, make straight his paths.
5 Kondi uya ugbangbang undi myinca, nan kondi niya nihoho nan nipana nidi tuu, nan ti naa ti mammangaran adi witti tini adi myinciza tinaa me sa tizin inti waa.
Every gorge shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low, and the crooked [places] shall become a straight [path], and the rough places smooth ways,
6 Vat anuu wadi iri ubura wa Asere”.
and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Yohana ma gun nigura nanuu me sa wa aye bati ma wuzi we ubaptisma “Shi ahana iwaa iti kono aveni magunan shi Isumi ucurnome iruba me sa I'eze?
He said therefore to the crowds which went out to be baptised by him, Offspring of vipers, who has forewarned you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 Nyani ahana sa wazin in niruba ubarka, kati itubi ugusa “Tizin Ibrahim acoo uru, barki sa in boo shi Asere Madake ma kurzo apoo ageme ahana Ibrahim.
Produce therefore fruits worthy of repentance; and begin not to say in yourselves, We have Abraham for [our] father, for I say unto you that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
9 Ana me amu wuna bitem atini ama titi barki anime vat utiti me sa wa game uyoo ahana wa ririn adi yori uni avetten anyimo uraa”.
And already also the axe is applied to the root of the trees; every tree therefore not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into [the] fire.
10 Nigura me niriaje unu igizo ume unu gusa “Nyanini tidi wuzi?”
And the crowds asked him saying, What should we do then?
11 Ma kabirka ma gun we “De sa mazin tidibi tini tiree ma nya de sa ma zomen ba u'inde, de sa mazin ini mumyarce ma wuzi anime cangi.
And he answering says to them, He that has two body-coats, let him give to him that has none; and he that has food, let him do likewise.
12 Anu kabsa Ikirfi imanyanga wa ē ma wuzi baptisma wa gun me “Unuu ubezizi, nyanini tidi wuzi?”
And tax-gatherers came also to be baptised, and they said to him, Teacher, what should we do?
13 Ma gun we “Kati ikabi ikirfi me sa iteki ige sa agunan shi ikabi ba”.
And he said to them, Take no more [money] than what is appointed to you.
14 Anani kara nini kono wa iki me, wa gu, “A haru naa? Ma gun we, “Kati iburri uye ikirfi innikara ba, nan i canni uye upilko sa ma taame ba Tonnoni ikirfi uppe ushi me”.
And persons engaged in military service also asked him saying, And we, what should we do? And he said to them, Oppress no one, nor accuse falsely, and be satisfied with your pay.
15 Sa anuu waa zin nucanta uguna Yeso ma ē, konderi mameki ugamara me iruba anicee ni Yohana, nan memani Yeso.
But as the people were in expectation, and all were reasoning in their hearts concerning John whether he might be the Christ,
16 Yohana makabirka ma gun Vat uwe “Me inzi shi unu baptisma inmei uye ma eze sa ma teki nikara num, ma bari in soppi tizin ta kpattak ameme ba. Madi wuzi shi ubaptisma in Bibe ba Asere bilau nan uraa.
John answered all, saying, I indeed baptise you with water, but the mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not fit to unloose; he shall baptise you with [the] Holy Spirit and fire;
17 Upija utana wa alkana umeme uraa atari bati ma ori ma wuu ati kere tume Madi punsi mucini me unu raa sa uda bito ba”.
whose winnowing-fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his threshing-floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner, but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
18 Unu gbara kang, Yohana ma bezizi anuu abanga urunta.
Exhorting then many other things also he announced [his] glad tidings to the people.

But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him as to Herodias, the wife of his brother, and as to all the wicked things which Herod had done,
20 Ma kurima kinkin ma wuu aka kurso Yohana akura anirere.
added this also to all [the rest], that he shut up John in prison.
21 Sa awuza anuu ubaptisma awuzi Yeso ubaptisma cangi, sa ma zin biringara Aseseri apokino.
And it came to pass, all the people having been baptised, and Jesus having been baptised and praying, that the heaven was opened,
22 Bibe ba Asere bilau bituu me kasi uhurbe, nimyiran ni Aseseri “Hu vana mani, de sa inkunna me. In kunna urunta ume”.
and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form as a dove upon him; and a voice came out of heaven, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I have found my delight.
