Matta 3
1 Kume ni wo Yuwana yu mwem kwamam tiyeu yau ne fulen ker kwama ro ti.
In then the days those comes John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness of Judea
2 Ko yiloten wori, liyar do lo kwama dadom.
and saying; do repent; has drawn near for the kingdom of the heavens.
3 won co wo nii dukume kaya tok kerce reu, “Dir nii kanger co bi cor ti kii, toki, “ko Yuwel Teluwe nin nureceu, fuwak ceko atim.
This for is the [One] having been spoken of (through *N(k)O*) Isaiah the prophet saying; [The] voice of one crying in the wilderness do prepare the way of [the] Lord, straight do make the paths of Him.
4 Yuwana merum ki belle yiri teleme, bwam ki dk teak fer cer. Cari ceu, kwake kange yuiti to kiyeu.
Himself now John was having the garment of him of hair of a camel and a belt of leather around the waist of him; and [the] food was of him locusts and honey wild.
5 Co rubo Urcalima kange wo Yahudiya gwam, kange bitine tinim bo kong Urduneu, ci bou ti ka bo ka tuje co wiyeu.
At that time were going out to him Jerusalem and all Judea and all the region around the Jordan,
6 Na ci yuu cinen mwem kwamam caji Urdun, kambo ci tok bwira kerer ce tiyeu.
and were being baptized in the Jordan (River *no*) by him confessing the sins of them.
7 La co to Faricawa kange cadukiyawa kila cirangum ti na co yu'u cinen mwem kwamamedi co ca ciye, “Kom berin nacuwe ki mwan neu, we wer kom ko cuam funero wo au tiye.
Having seen now many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to the baptism of him he said to them; Brood of vipers, who forewarned you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 Ko ne bituti wo a nung yila ka kume ko tiyeu.
do produce therefore (fruit worthy *N(k)O*) of repentance.
9 Ku kware mor ne kume kom ki Abram te kume! be ma yi kom ti, kwama wi kibi kwan do wo a kung Abram nin bibeiti fo tetendo wuro neneu.
And not may you presume to say within yourselves; [As] father we have Abraham; I say for to you that able is God out of stones these to raise up children to Abraham.
10 Na wonyeu yoti biteye dimer tiniro nan, na cori tiyowo ne bo bituti keneti, an tom co na merken mor kire.
Already now (and *k*) the ax to the root of the trees is applied. every therefore tree not producing fruit good is cut down and into [the] fire is thrown.
11 Ma Yukumen mwem kwamam bo ki mwem, ya ciko yo laka kumekeu. Niwo bouti bui mi yeu layeki dur, woro ta ceu ma labo nan tu'u. co ca yu'u kumen mwem kwamam bo ki yuwa tangbe kwama, kange kira.
I myself indeed you baptize with water to repentance, however after me is coming mightier than I He is of whom not I am fit the sandals to carry; He himself you will baptize with [the] Spirit Holy and with fire;
12 Kwele yu'u ka ceko tam kang cek, can nyinagum teneu wiyak, na murom bikateceu na yo ken binico.”
whose winnowing fork [is] in the hand of Him, and He will clear the threshing floor of Him and will gather the wheat of Him into the barn (of him *o*) the but chaff He will burn up with fire unquenchable.
13 La Yecu bou biten Galili, ya caji Urdun fintange Yuwana nen, na yu'u cinen mwem kwamam.
Then comes Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John to be baptized by him.
14 La Yuwana mani naco kicim co, tok ti ki, mo wo ma cuiti na yu'u mwem kwamam meu, mom bou minen?”.
But John was hindering Him saying; I myself need have by You to be baptized, and You yourself come to me?
15 Yecu yila yi co a ma nyo na dim cak-cakeu gwam. Co Yuwana ciya cinene.
Answering however Jesus said unto (him; *NK(o)*) do permit [it] now; thus for fitting it is to us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he permits Him.
16 Buiko ci yu'u cinen mwem kwamam be di, Yecu cerum can duwo mor mwenge, La dii kwama wo cinen. La co to yuwa tangbe kwamako yirau ti docer na nagumfiye, yira yiti dorcer.
(and *k*) Having been baptized (now *no*) Jesus immediately went up from the water. and behold were opened to Him the heavens, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and alighting upon Him.
17 La diro kange lo kwama ceru toki, wo bi bwemi ma cui cuiyeu, ma nuwa luma cek ti.
And behold a voice out of the heavens saying; This is the Son of Mine the beloved in whom I was well pleased.
