1 Caesar Tiberius-na panba chahi taramangasuba chahida Pontius Pilate-na Judea-gi leingak mapu, Herodna Galilee-gi leingakpa amasung manaonupa Philipna Iturea amadi Trachonitis-ki leingakpa; Lysanias-na Abilene-gi leingakpa,
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 Amasung Annas amadi Caiaphas-na athoiba purohitlen oiringeida lamjao-lamhangda leiriba Zechariah-gi machanupa John-gi maphamda Tengban Mapuna wa ngangbirammi.
in the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 Maram aduna pap kokchanabagidamak pukning hongbagi baptize lounabagi pao miyamda sandoktuna John-na Jordan turelgi akoibada leiba lam pumnamakta chatlammi.
And he came into all the region round about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins;
4 Masi Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichou Isaiah-gi lairikta ikhibagumbani: “Kanagumba amana lamjao-lamhangda laori: ‘MAPU IBUNGO-gi lambi thourang tou; Ibungona chatnaba lambi chumhallu!
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 Tampak khudingmak thongatkani, Ching amadi chingjao khudingmakpu temthokkani. Akhoiba lambisingbu chumhangani, Akut atong leiba lambisingbu nalhangani.
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 Aduga mi pumnamakna Tengban Mapugi aran-khubham uba phangjagani.’”
And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Adudagi mangonda baptize touhannaba lakliba miyam aduda John-na hairak-i, “He lilgi chada naodasa, lakkadouriba Tengban Mapugi asaoba adudagi chennaba nakhoida kanana haibage?
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 Nakhoina paptagi pukning hongbagi matik chaba mahei yallu. Aduga ‘Eikhoigi ipa Abraham lei’ haina nakhoigi napukningda haijaganu. Maramdi, eina nakhoida hairi madudi nungsing asidagisu Tengban Mapuna Abraham-gi machasing thokhanba ngammi.
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 Houjiksu upalsing asigi maruda singjang thaduna lei amasung aphaba mahei pandaba upal pumnamakpu kakthattuna meinungda langsingani.”
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 Maduda miyam aduna John-da hanglak-i, “Adu oirabadi eikhoina kari tougadage?”
And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?
11 Mahakna makhoida khumlak-i, “Phurit ani leiba mahak aduna amata phaoba leijadaba mahak aduda ama pisanu aduga chananaba chinjak leiba mahak adunasu matou adugumna tousanu.”
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 Adudagi kanggat khomba kharasu baptize lounaba laklammi amasung makhoina Johnda hanglak-i, “Oja Ibungo, Eikhoina kari tougadage?”
And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Master, what must we do?
13 Mahakna makhoida khumlak-i, “Loupham thokpa adudagi henna nakhoina louganu.”
And he said unto them, Extort no more than that which is appointed you.
14 Adudagi lanmi kharanasu mangonda hanglak-i, “Aduga eikhoinadi kari tougadage?” Mahakna makhoida khumlak-i, “Mi kanadagisu nam-haduna sel louganu aduga kanadasu aranba maral thangjinganu. Amasung nanggi nanggi asuman aduda apenba oiyu.”
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 Aduga mi pumnamakna Christtana lakkadaba adu ngaiduna leiba maramna John-bu Christta adu oigadara haina makhoigi thamoinungda hangjarammi.
And as the people were in expectation, and all men reasoned in their hearts concerning John, whether haply he were the Christ;
16 Maram aduna John-na makhoi pumnamakta hairak-i, “Einadi nakhoibu isingda baptize toubi, adubu eingondagi henna matik leiba kanagumba ama lenglakli aduga eidi Ibungo magi sandal mari louthokpa phaoba matik chade. Mahaknadi nakhoibu Thawai Asengbada amasung meida baptize toubigani.
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 Ibungona mahei marong yeipham adu sengdoktuna gehusing adubu keida peisinnaba makhutta mahakki phou-inthok paiduna leiri; adubu mahakna mahamsing adubudi mutpa naidaba meida thajingani.”
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 Aduga John-na khetnaba mawong matou kaya amada mising aduda Aphaba Pao sandoklammi amasung makhoigi lambi adu hongdoknaba thougatlammi.
With many other exhortations therefore preached he good tidings unto the people;
19 Adubu mahakna Galilee-gi leingakpa Herod-pu manaonupa Philip-ki nupi Herodias-pu loubagidamak amasung mahakna toukhiba phattaba thabak pumnamak adugidamak cheirammi.
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 Aduga Herod-na John-bu keisumsangda thamjinduna amukka henna tamthiba pap langsinjarammi.
added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Nongma John-na miyam amabu baptize touringei matamda Jisubusu baptize tourammi. Aduga Ibungona haijaringeida swarga hangdoktuna,
Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 Thawai Asengbana hakchang oina khunugi mawongda Ibungogi mathakta lengtharaklammi. Aduga swargadagi khonjel amana hairak-i, “Nahak eigi nungsijaraba Ichanupani, eina nangonda yamna pelle.”
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.
