1 Ke yac aksingoul limekosr in we lal Tokosra Fulat Tiberius, Pontius Pilate pa governor in acn Judea, Herod pa leumi acn Galilee, ac Philip, tamulel lal Herod, pa leumi acn Iturea ac Trachonitis; Lysanias el leumi acn Abilene;
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 the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
2 ac Annas ac Caiaphas eltal mwet Tol Fulat. In pacl se inge pa kas lun God tuku nu sel John, wen natul Zechariah, ke el muta yen mwesis.
in the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 Ouinge John el fufahsryesr in acn nukewa su oan apkuran nu ke Infacl Jordan, ac oru luti lal we, ac fahk, “Kowos auliyak ac baptaisla, na God El fah eela ma koluk lowos.”
And he came into all the region round about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins;
4 Oana ma simla in book lal Isaiah mwet palu: “Sie pusra wowoyak yen mwesis ac fahk, ‘Kowos akoo inkanek lun Leum, Ac aksuwosye Elan fahsr kac!
as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight.
5 Infahlfal nukewa ac fah nwekyukla, Ac eol ac tohktok nukewa ac fah akfwelyeyuk. Inkanek kururu ac fah aksuwosyeyuk, Ac innek siruprup fah akfwelyeyuk.
Every valley shall be filled, And every mountain and hill shall be brought low; And the crooked shall become straight, And the rough ways smooth;
6 Mwet nukewa fin faclu ac fah liye molela sin God me!’”
And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Un mwet puspis som nu yorol John in tuh baptaisla sel. El fahk nu selos, “Kowos wet pwasin! Su fahk mu kowos ac ku in kaingkunla mwe keok ma God El akola in supwama uh?
He said therefore to the multitudes that went out to be baptized of him, Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Oru ma ac akpwayei lah kowos forla liki ma koluk lowos an. Ac nimet sifacna nunku mu Abraham el papa tomowos. Nga fahk nu suwos lah God El ku na in eis eot inge ac ekulla nu ke tulik natul Abraham!
Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
9 Tuhla uh akola tari in pakiya sak uh nwe ke oka uh. Sak nukewa ma tia oswe fahko wo uh ac fah pakpuki ac sisila nu in e uh.”
And even now is the axe also laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10 Na mwet uh siyuk sel, “Na mea kut ac oru?”
And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?
11 El topuk ac fahk, “Kutena mwet su oasr nuknuk luo lal, lela elan sang sie lun el su wangin la, ac kutena mwet su oasr mwe mongo yorol, lela elan sang kutu nun mwet ma wangin ma nac.”
And he answered and said unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise.
12 Kutu mwet eisani tax elos tuku in wi baptaisla, ac elos siyuk sel, “Mwet Luti, ac kut — mea kut in oru?”
And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Master, what must we do?
13 El fahk nu selos, “Nimet eis tax yohk liki lupa ma oakwuki ke ma sap an.”
And he said unto them, Extort no more than that which is appointed you.
14 Ac kutu mwet mweun elos oayapa siyuk sel, “Ac kut — mea kut ac oru?” El fahk nu selos, “Nimet eisla mani sin kutena mwet ke funmwet, ku orek loh kikiap lain mwet. Kowos in falkinna molin orekma lowos an.”
And soldiers also asked him, saying, And we, what must we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither exact [anything] wrongfully; and be content with your wages.
15 Mutawauk in yokelik finsrak lun mwet uh kacl John lah acnu el pa Messiah.
And as the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether haply he were the Christ;
16 Ouinge John el fahk nu selos nukewa, “Nga baptaisi kowos ke kof, tusruktu oasr sie su ac fah tuku, su arulana fulat ac ku likiyu. Nga kupansuwol in tulala ah losyen fahluk lal ah. El ac fah baptaisi kowos ke Ngun Mutal ac e.
John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but there cometh he that is mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and [with] fire:
17 Fork in sraclik lal oasr inpaol, ac el akola in sraclik fiten wheat liki kulun wheat. El ac fah orani wheat lal nu in nien filma lal. Tusruktu kulun wheat uh ac fah isisyak in sie e su ac fah tiana kunla.”
whose fan is in his hand, throughly to cleanse his threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.
18 In lumah puspis John el fahkak Pweng Wo nu sin mwet uh, ac kwafe nu selos in ekulla ouiyen moul lalos.
With many other exhortations therefore preached he good tidings unto the people;
19 Tusruktu John el kael Herod, su leumi Galilee, mweyen el payukyak sel Herodias, mutan se kien tamulel lal, ac oru pac kain koluk puspis saya.
but Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother’s wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done,
20 Na Herod el eisalang John nu in presin, su koluk liki na ouiya ma el oru meet ah.
added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Tukun mwet nukewa baptaisla tari, Jesus el oayapa baptaisla. Ke pacl se el pre ah, kusrao ikakla,
Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 ac Ngun Mutal tuhwi nu facl oana luman sie wuleoa. Ac sie pusra tuku inkusrao me ac fahk, “Kom Wen kulo nutik. Nga arulana insewowo sum.”
and the Holy Ghost 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 am well pleased.
