Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip being tetrarch of the region belonging to Ituraea, and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias being tetrarch of Abilene,
anantaraṁ tibiriyakaisarasya rājatvasya pañcadaśe vatsare sati yadā pantīyapīlāto yihūdādeśādhipati rherod tu gālīlpradeśasya rājā philipanāmā tasya bhrātā tu yitūriyāyāstrākhonītiyāpradeśasya ca rājāsīt luṣānīyanāmā avilīnīdeśasya rājāsīt
2 in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to be in John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
hānan kiyaphāścemau pradhānayājākāvāstāṁ tadānīṁ sikhariyasya putrāya yohane madhyeprāntaram īśvarasya vākye prakāśite sati
3 And he came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching an immersion of repentance for remission of sins,
sa yarddana ubhayataṭapradeśān sametya pāpamocanārthaṁ manaḥparāvarttanasya cihnarūpaṁ yanmajjanaṁ tadīyāḥ kathāḥ sarvvatra pracārayitumārebhe|
4 as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, which says, The voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.
yiśayiyabhaviṣyadvaktṛgranthe yādṛśī lipirāste yathā, parameśasya panthānaṁ pariṣkuruta sarvvataḥ| tasya rājapathañcaiva samānaṁ kurutādhunā|
5 Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be brought low. And the crooked things will be into straight and the rough into smooth ways.
kāriṣyante samucchrāyāḥ sakalā nimnabhūmayaḥ| kāriṣyante natāḥ sarvve parvvatāścopaparvvatāḥ| kāriṣyante ca yā vakrāstāḥ sarvvāḥ saralā bhuvaḥ| kāriṣyante samānāstā yā uccanīcabhūmayaḥ|
6 And all flesh will see the salvation of God.
īśvareṇa kṛtaṁ trāṇaṁ drakṣyanti sarvvamānavāḥ| ityetat prāntare vākyaṁ vadataḥ kasyacid ravaḥ||
7 He said therefore to the multitudes who went out to be immersed by him, Ye offspring of vipers, who showed you to flee from the coming wrath?
ye ye lokā majjanārthaṁ bahirāyayustān sovadat re re sarpavaṁśā āgāminaḥ kopāt palāyituṁ yuṣmān kaścetayāmāsa?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, We have a father, Abraham. For I say to you, that God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
tasmād ibrāhīm asmākaṁ pitā kathāmīdṛśīṁ manobhi rna kathayitvā yūyaṁ manaḥparivarttanayogyaṁ phalaṁ phalata; yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi pāṣāṇebhya etebhya īśvara ibrāhīmaḥ santānotpādane samarthaḥ|
9 And even now the axe is laid at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore not making good fruit is cut down, and cast into fire.
aparañca tarumūle'dhunāpi paraśuḥ saṁlagnosti yastaruruttamaṁ phalaṁ na phalati sa chidyate'gnau nikṣipyate ca|
10 And the crowds questioned him, saying, What then shall we do?
tadānīṁ lokāstaṁ papracchustarhi kiṁ karttavyamasmābhiḥ?
11 And having answered, he says to them, He who has two coats, let him share with him not having, and he who has food, let him do likewise.
tataḥ sovādīt yasya dve vasane vidyete sa vastrahīnāyaikaṁ vitaratu kiṁñca yasya khādyadravyaṁ vidyate sopi tathaiva karotu|
12 And tax collectors also came to be immersed, and they said to him, Teacher, what should we do?
tataḥ paraṁ karasañcāyino majjanārtham āgatya papracchuḥ he guro kiṁ karttavyamasmābhiḥ?
13 And he said to them, Collect not one thing more than from what has been appointed for you.
tataḥ sokathayat nirūpitādadhikaṁ na gṛhlita|
14 And men who were soldiers also questioned him, saying, And we, what should we do? And he said to them, Do violence to no man, nor accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.
anantaraṁ senāgaṇa etya papraccha kimasmābhi rvā karttavyam? tataḥ sobhidadhe kasya kāmapi hāniṁ mā kārṣṭa tathā mṛṣāpavādaṁ mā kuruta nijavetanena ca santuṣya tiṣṭhata|
15 And as the people were expectant, and all pondering in their hearts about John, if perhaps he was the Christ,
aparañca lokā apekṣayā sthitvā sarvvepīti manobhi rvitarkayāñcakruḥ, yohanayam abhiṣiktastrātā na veti?
16 John responded, saying to them all, I indeed immerse you in water, but a man mightier than I comes, of whom I am not worthy to unloose the strap of his shoes. He will immerse you in the Holy Spirit and fire,
tadā yohan sarvvān vyājahāra, jale'haṁ yuṣmān majjayāmi satyaṁ kintu yasya pādukābandhanaṁ mocayitumapi na yogyosmi tādṛśa eko matto gurutaraḥ pumān eti, sa yuṣmān vahnirūpe pavitra ātmani majjayiṣyati|
17 whose winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing floor, and will gather the wheat into his storehouse, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.
aparañca tasya haste śūrpa āste sa svaśasyāni śuddharūpaṁ prasphoṭya godhūmān sarvvān bhāṇḍāgāre saṁgrahīṣyati kintu būṣāṇi sarvvāṇyanirvvāṇavahninā dāhayiṣyati|
18 Indeed therefore, also exhorting the people with many other things, he preached the good news.
yohan upadeśenetthaṁ nānākathā lokānāṁ samakṣaṁ pracārayāmāsa|
19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him about Herodias his brother's wife, and about all of which evil things Herod had done,
aparañca herod rājā philipnāmnaḥ sahodarasya bhāryyāṁ herodiyāmadhi tathānyāni yāni yāni kukarmmāṇi kṛtavān tadadhi ca
20 also added this to them all, he even locked up John in prison.
yohanā tiraskṛto bhūtvā kārāgāre tasya bandhanād aparamapi kukarmma cakāra|
21 Now it came to pass, during the immersion of all the people, Jesus also having been immersed and praying, for the heaven to be opened,
itaḥ pūrvvaṁ yasmin samaye sarvve yohanā majjitāstadānīṁ yīśurapyāgatya majjitaḥ|
22 and the Holy Spirit to descend in a bodily form as a dove upon him, and a voice to occur out of heaven, saying, Thou are my beloved Son. In thee I am well pleased.
tadanantaraṁ tena prārthite meghadvāraṁ muktaṁ tasmācca pavitra ātmā mūrttimān bhūtvā kapotavat taduparyyavaruroha; tadā tvaṁ mama priyaḥ putrastvayi mama paramaḥ santoṣa ityākāśavāṇī babhūva|
23 And Jesus himself was beginning to be about thirty years old, being the son (as was supposed) of Joseph, the son of Heli,
