Matthew 3
1 And in those dayes, Iohn the Baptist came and preached in the wildernes of Iudea,
Bada dembora hartan ethor cedin Ioannes baptista, predicatzen çuela Iudeaco desertuan:
2 And said, Repent: for the kingdome of heauen is at hand.
Eta cioela, Emenda çaitezte: ecen ceruètaco resumá hurbil da.
3 For this is he of whome it is spoken by the Prophet Esaias, saying, The voyce of him that crieth in the wildernes, Prepare ye the way of the Lord: make his pathes straight.
Ecen haur da Esaias Prophetáz erran içan cena, cioela, Desertuan oihuz dagoenaren voza da, Appain eçaçue Iaunaren bidea, çucen itzaçue haren bidescác.
4 And this Iohn had his garment of camels heare, and a girdle of a skinne about his loynes: his meate was also locusts and wilde hony.
Ioannes hunec bada çuen bere abillamendua camellu biloz, eta larruzco guerricoa bere guerruncean inguru: eta haren viandá cen othiz eta bassa eztiz.
5 Then went out to him Ierusalem and all Iudea, and all the region rounde about Iordan.
Orduan ethor cedin harengana Ierusaleme eta Iudea gucia, eta Iordanaren inguruco comarca gucia.
6 And they were baptized of him in Iordan, confessing their sinnes.
Eta batheyatzen ciraden harenganic Iordanean, bere bekatuac confessatzen cituztela.
7 Now when he sawe many of the Pharises, and of the Sadduces come to his baptisme, he said vnto them, O generations of vipers, who hath forewarned you to flee from the anger to come?
Ikussiric bada anhitz Phariseuetaric eta Sadduceuetaric ethorten ciradela haren baptismora, erran ciecén, Vipera castá, norc auisatu çaituzte hira ethortecoari ihes daguioçuen?
8 Bring foorth therefore fruite worthy amendment of life.
Eguin itzaçue bada fructuac emendamenduaren digneac.
9 And thinke not to say with your selues, We haue Abraham to our father: for I say vnto you, that God is able euen of these stones to raise vp children vnto Abraham.
Eta ezteçaçuela presumi ceuroc baithan erraitera, Abraham dugu aita: ecen badiotsuet, Iaincoac harri hautaric-ere Abrahami haour suscita ahal dieçaqueola.
10 And now also is the axe put to the roote of the trees: therfore euery tree which bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewen downe, and cast into ye fire.
Bada ia aizcorá arborén errora eçarria da: beraz arbore fructu onic eguiten eztuen gucia piccatzen da eta sura egoizten.
11 In deede I baptize you with water to amendment of life, but he that commeth after me, is mightier then I, whose shoes I am not worthie to beare: hee will baptize you with the holy Ghost, and with fire.
Eguia da, nic batheyatzen çaituztet vrez emendamendutara: baina ene ondoan ethorten dena, ni baino borthitzago da, ceinen çapatén ekarteco ezpainaiz digne: harc batheyaturen çaituzté Spiritu sainduaz eta suz.
12 Which hath his fanne in his hand, and wil make cleane his floore, and gather his wheate into his garner, but will burne vp the chaffe with vnquenchable fire.
Bere bahea bere escuan du, eta garbituren du bere larraina: eta bilduren du bere oguibihia granerera: baina lastoa choil erreren du behinere hiltzen ezten suan.
13 Then came Iesus from Galile to Iordan vnto Iohn, to be baptized of him.
Orduan ethor cedin Iesus Galileatic Iordanera Ioannesgana, harenganic batheya ledinçát.
14 But Iohn earnestly put him backe, saying, I haue neede to be baptized of thee, and commest thou to me?
Baina Ioannesec haguitz empatchatzen çuen hura, cioela, Nic behar diat hireganic batheyatu, eta hi ethorten aiz enegana?
15 Then Iesus answering, saide to him, Let be nowe: for thus it becommeth vs to fulfill all righteousnes. So he suffered him.
Eta ihardesten çuela Iesusec erran cieçón, Vtzac oraingotz: ecen hunela complitu behar diagu iustitia gucia. Orduan vtzi ceçan eguitera.
16 And Iesus when hee was baptized, came straight out of the water. And lo, the heaues were opened vnto him, and Iohn saw the Spirit of God descending like a doue, and lighting vpon him.
Eta Iesus batheyatu cenean, bertan ilki cedin vretic: eta huná, irequi içan çaizcan ceruäc, eta ikus ceçan Iaincoaren Spiritua vsso columba baten guissán iausten eta haren gainera ethorten
17 And loe, a voyce came from heauen, saying, This is my beloued Sonne, in whome I am well pleased.
Eta huná vozbat cerutic, cioela, Haur da ene Seme maitea, ceinetan neure atseguin ona hartzen baitut.
