1 Muchilimo che ikumi ni iyanza cho mubuso wa Tiberiasi Sisare- chikwina bulyo Pontiusi Pilato abali mubusi wa Judeya, Heroda ibali muyendisi wa Galileya, mwanchakwe Filipe abali kuyendisa chikiliti cha Ituria ni Trakoniyisi, mi Lisaniasi abali kuyendisa chikiliti cha Abilene,
In the fiftenthe yeare of the raygne of Tiberius the Emperoure Pontius Pylate beinge leftenaut of Iurie and Herode beinge Tetrach of Galile and his brother Philip Tetrach in Iturea and in the region of Traconites and Lysanias the Tetrach of Abyline
2 mwi nako ya vuvusi vwa muprisita mukulwana yo hanzi Ananiasi ni Kaishala-inzwi lye Ireeza ni lyeza kwa Johani mwana Zakaria, mwi ikanda.
when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes: the worde of God came vnto Iohn ye sonne of zacharias in the wildernes.
3 Aba yendi mu zikiliti zonse zi zimbulukite Jorodani, ku kutaza i nkolobezo ya ku baka ya kuwondela zibi.
And he came in to all the coostes aboute Iordan preachynge the baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes
4 Sina mukuñolelwe mwi mvuka ya manzwi a Isaya mupolofita, “Inzwi lya yenke lisumpa mwi ikaanda, 'Mu vakanye i nzila ya Simwine, mu wolole inzila zakwe.
at it is written in the boke of the sayinges of Esaias ye Prophet which sayeth: The voyce of a cryar in wyldernes prepare the waye of the Lorde make hys pathes strayght.
5 Mikokolombwa yonse mu izuzwe, mi ilundu ni chi ulu mu zi bozekezwe hansi, ni inzila zi nyonokete muzi wololwe, ni zi baka zisa shiyeme muzi zakwe mu migwagwa,
Every valley shalbe fylled and every moutayne and hyll shalbe brought lowe. And crocked thinges shalbe made streight: and the rough wayes shalbe made smoth:
6 mi inyama zonse muzi bone kuhaza kwe Ireeza.”
and all flesshe shall se the saveour sent of God.
7 Linu Johani na wamba ku vantu vangi vavali kwiza kuku kolobezwa kwali, “Inwe muvaana va zihili! Njeni yava mi mamelisi kutiya ku vukali vukezite?
Then sayde he to the people that were come to be baptysed of him: O generacion of vipers who hath taught you to flye from the wrath to come?
8 Linu he, muvike zilyantu ziswanele ku vaaka, mi kanji muti mukati kenu, 'Twina Abrahama che sheetu,' ni miwambile kuti Ireeza uwola ku busa baana ba Abrahama mwa a mavwe.
Bringe forth due frutes of repentaunce and begynne not to saye in youre selves we have Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you: God is able of these stones to reyse vp chyldren vnto Abraham.
9 Nanga hanu ibbeule li bakanyezwe muhiisi wa masamu. Mu kuti i samu lyonse lisahi zilyantu zi lotu mulitemenwe hansi ni ku sohelwa mu mulilo.”
Now also ys the axe leyd vnto the rote of the trees: so yt every tree which bringeth not forth good frute shalbe hewe doune and caste in to ye fyre.
10 vungi vungi vwa vantu ni va tanga kumubuza, ni vacho, “Linu aha tuchita vule?”
And the people axed him sayinge: What shall we do then?
11 Chetaava nikuti kuvali, “Chikuti muntu wina zizwato zo beele, ali kauhanyeze ni ya sena, nozuna wina zilyo naye achite cho kuswana.”
He answered and sayde vnto them: He that hath two coottes let him parte with him that hath none: and he that hath meate let him do lyke wyse.
12 Va kunganyi ba mali naabo niveza kuku kolobezwa, mi ni kucho kwali, “Muruti, chinzi chitu lukela kuchita?”
Then came ther Publicans to be baptised and sayde vnto him: Master what shall we do?
13 Na wamba kwavo, “kanji mukunganyi mali mangii kuhitiliza amwa laelwa ku kunganya.”
And he sayde vnto the: requyre no more then that which ys appoynted vnto you.
14 Vamwi masole navo chiva muvuza, ni va cho, “Mi linu iswe vule? Tu swanela ku chita nzi?” Na wamba kubali, “kanji muhindi mali kuyense muntu cha kuhambiliza, imi kanji munyansi muntu cha mafosisa. mulikolwisise kache ntuwelo zenu.”
The soudyoures lyke wyse demaunded of hym sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde to them: Do violence to noo ma: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: but be content with youre wages.
15 Linu vantu hanu hachivava lindile che ntakazo kwiza kwa Kiriste, zumwi no zumwi avali komokelwe mwi nkulo zavo ku amana ni Johani mukuti pona chova njeye Kireste.
As the people were in a doute and all men disputed in their hertes of Iohn whether he were very Christ:
16 Johani ne taava cha kuwamba kuvali vonse, “Ka changu, Ni mikolobeza ni menzi, kono zumwi ukezite yokolete tota hita Ime, mi Ime kani swaneli ni ku sumununa mihala ye nsangu zakwe. Mwa mi kolobeze cha Luhuho lu Jolola ni cha mulilo.
Ihon answered and sayde to them all: I baptyse you wt water but a stronger then I cometh after me whose shue latchet I am not worthy to vnlouse: he will baptise you with the holy goost and with fyre:
17 Chi damiso cha kwe cha haluvuwa cina mwi yanza lyakwe ku joloza luli lu vuwa lwa kwe ni ku kunganya mahila mu chishete cha kwe. Kono mwa hise buhundu ni mulilo usa zimwa.”
which hath his fanne in his hond and will pourge his floore and will gader the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he bourne with fyre that never shalbe quenched.
18 Ni manzwi mangi a mwi e nsusuwezo hape, Johani na kutaza ivañeli indotu kuvantu.
And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people.
19 Mi Heroda mubusi ha nyanswa cha kusesa mwihyavwe wa mwa nce, Herodiasi, mi ni cha zonse zivi zintu Heroda za vapangi,
Then Herode the Tetrach (when he was rebuked of him for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe and for all the evyls which Herod had done)
20 ava weli izi kumi landu yakwe: ne yalila Johani mwi ntolongo.
added this above all and leyd Iohn in preson.
21 Linu nikwa va kuti, vantu vonse chivavali kukolovezwe, Jesu naye ava kolovezwe. mi haho havali ku lapela, mawulu niye yaluka,
And yt fortuned as all the people receaved baptyme (and when Iesus was baptised and dyd praye) that heave was opened
22 Mi Luhuho Lujolola mu chi vumbantu cha vuntu ni lweza cha ku shulumuka hali ubu inkuva, mi inzwi nilya zwa mwi ulu, “U mwanangu wa muswisu, uni saka, Ni kondetwa ka chako.”
and the holy goost came doune in a bodely shape lyke a dove vpo him and a voyce came fro heve sayinge: Thou arte my dere sonne in the do I delyte.
