Luka 3
1 Nanya likus likure nin natowun kube na ugo Tiberius Kaisar, ame Bilatus Ba-bunti wa di ugomna Nyahudiya, Hiridus wadi unan bunu gwamnna in Galili, gwana me Filibus wadi unan bunu kipin ituriya nin Tarakunitis, Lisaniyas wadi unan bunu gwamna Abiliya,
In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
2 nin kubi na Annas wadi kumalami kudya nin Kayafas, uliru Kutelle da kitin Yohanna, usaun Zakariya, nanya kusho.
during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.
3 A wa cinu akeu nigberi naa na ni wadi ngau kurawa urdun, a wadin wazin shintinu nmyen nin foo na acara udu uwesu kulapi.
He went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins,
4 Nafo na inna yertin nanya kufa ligbulang Ishaya unan liru nin nuu Kutelle, “Li wai nmong din yicu nanya kusho, 'Kelen libau Kutelle, kelen tikoot mene ti so dert.
as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him.
5 Vat awu ima kulu anin, vat atala nin naparan ima toltinu ana nin vat, tibau ti ginlang ima nakpu tinin, tibau ti nanzan ima kelu tinin lau.
Every valley shall be filled in, and every mountain and hill made low. The crooked ways shall be made straight, and the rough ways smooth.
6 Vat anit ma yenu utucu Kutelle.'”
And all humanity will see God’s salvation.’”
7 Yohanna woro ligozin na nite ale na iwa ccinu uda kiti me ada shintu nani nanya mmyen, “Anung kuewunu fiyii timung, nghani na kpada minu icun kiti finana nayi to na tidin cinu?
Then John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 Nutunon nono nanga na nibatina ufubu, na iwa cizin ugbondilu nanya mine ba, “Tidin Ibrahim ucif bite,' bara na ina belen munu au Kutelle wa sa a nutuno Ibrahim ku nono tutung unuzu natala alele.
Produce fruit, then, in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.
9 Nene imalu tii kidowo tilin kuce bara nani vat kuca ko na kunutuno kumat kucine ba wase ikowo kunin i ta ulaku.”
The axe lies ready at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”
10 Amon nanya ligozie teringhe imoro, “Iyanghari ti ma nin ti.”
The crowds asked him, “What then should we do?”
11 A kawa a woro nnani, “Umong wa di nin nalutuk aba, ana ule na a salimung, ule na asi nin nimonli a su nani.”
John replied, “Whoever has two tunics should share with him who has none, and whoever has food should do the same.”
12 Among anan sessun gandu da ida shintin nani nmyen, i woroghe, “'Unan yiru, inghanghri ti ma ti?”
Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?”
13 A woro nani, “Na ima seru ikurfung ikata ile imong na ina beling minu.
“Collect no more than you are authorized,” he answered.
14 Among a soja da tiringhe, i woro, “Arike fa? Tiba tizighari?” Aworo nani, “Na iwa seru ikurfun kifin mmong nin likara ba. Na iwa vura umong ba teren kibinai nin imung na idin bizu minu.”
Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” “Do not take money by force or false accusation,” he said. “Be content with your wages.”
15 Nene na anite wa din ncaa ndak Yesu, kogha wadin kpilzule sa Yohanna re Kristi.
The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John could be the Christ.
16 Yohanna kawa a woro nani vat, “Bara meng idin shintu munu nanya myen, umong din cinu ulenge na akafini nin likara, na meng bafin inbunku tii nakpatak mye ba, ama shintu munu nanya Ruhu Ulau nin laa.
John answered all of them: “I baptize you with water, but One more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
17 Kupark mye di nanya nacara mye na ama kyeliu uaalkama a gutun insoronghe ayiru iyole atii filai ama juju insoronghe nin la ule na iwa se ibico ba.”
His winnowing fork is in His hand to clear His threshing floor and to gather the wheat into His barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
18 Nin mong ugbaru udia tutung, abele anite ulilrun nlai.
With these and many other exhortations, John proclaimed the good news to the people.
19 Yohanna kpada Hiridus ku kitin yerun nwaii mbene mye Hirudiya, nin vat nadu ananzang Hiridus na ana su.
But when he rebuked Herod the tetrarch regarding his brother’s wife Herodias and all the evils he had done,
20 Bara nan Hiridus kuru a ti nlong lidu tinanzang a mati i tursu Yohanna ilu nanya kilari lican.
Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison.
21 Nene kubi da, na Yohanna wa shintu anit vat nanya nmyen, a shintino Yesu ku wang na awa din nlira kitene kani puno.
When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened,
22 Uruhu Kutelle tulu kitene mye nafo kuwulung, liwui nuzu kitene kani, “Fere gono nayi ning udin puzi ayi.”
and the Holy Spirit descended on Him in a bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
